The happy faces you saw while doing press and at the premiere of this long long awaited sequel were all a sham. The A+ list actor who also produces still is at war with the actress who stars in both films.
If I'm remembering this correctly, Hanks' wife Rita Wilson was the moving force behind the first Big Fat Greek Wedding. Vardalos has a beef with them over the money. There may have been some "creative accounting" involved in funneling the lion's share to Wilson/Hanks and keeping it from Vardalos.
hahaha, Nia....having a career past this point is unlikely. also she is a known b****h, taking tons of credit where credit should have been given to the cast of the first film.
she should make nice with Hanks, who is a legitimate star. she's gonna be a nobody once again soon enough.
That's kind of hard to believe considering some of the stories about both of them, not to mention the fact that their oldest kid together is a total screwup.
Chet has been very good on Maron this season, even making fun of him being a white wannabe rapper from wherever the rich elite white people live in California
Dont think they have to worry about working together again.
ReplyDeleteGreek weddings - how many do I need to see?
ReplyDeleteSpoiler: none
I hate feta cheese and olives :(
ReplyDeleteNot smart to piss of your producers. What's the back story here?
ReplyDeleteMUCHLU NAILED IT. WTF????
ReplyDeleteWhy do they hate each other?

ReplyDeleteI should have added that Vardalos wrote and performed the story as a play first, it was entirely hers.
ReplyDeleteThanks, good to know. I always wondered if Tom Hanks was really such a nice guy, I guess he's not.
ReplyDeleteI do too but I like other Greek food like saganaki, spinach pie, gyros, Pastichio, dolmades. Mmmmm

also, tom hanks and rita wilson are genuinely kind people. youd have to do something really nasty to piss off those people.

ReplyDeleteyeah I did! Sorry Derek
ReplyDeleteI see Mr. Tom Hanks himself decided to drop in. Or one of his kids. Prolly Chet, lol.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of bitch, his wife doesn't exactly have a sterling rep, either.
ReplyDeleteHe probably is but Rita Wilson is one of the toughest, most powerful women in Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteChet has been very good on Maron this season, even making fun of him being a white wannabe rapper from wherever the rich elite white people live in California
ReplyDeleteFeta and Kalamatas are some of the best things life has to offer.
ReplyDeleteI bought a small Kalamata tree but couldn't keep it alive. :(
True Story. Hanks/Wilson stole a vast portion of the initial movie's profits.
