Isla Fisher says she has more respect for her husband and actor Sacha Baron Cohen since working with him on Grimsby.
Asked who her favourite co-star was, she told Hello magazine said: “Well I have to pick my husband. I would not want to not pick him. He is my favourite, obviously. We had a really fun time [on Grimsby]. We shared a trailer. And it was just hilarious.”
“Obviously I always respected him, but having been around so many big comedy stars and seeing how they improvise and stuff — and then to work with my husband and see him be the best improv comedian I’ve ever worked with, I loved it,” she added.
Though the Confessions of a Shopaholic star says being a working mother is tough, she feels lucky to have a job that offers so much flexibility.
She said: “It’s a juggling act and most of the time I feel like the ball is just rolling on the ground — there’s not even one in the air. But I’ve realised how fortunate I am that I chosen an occupation that’s so family friendly.
“Obviously you don’t want to pull tiny people out of school and drag them to the other end of the Earth on a whim to play a role. But you’ve got a trailer on set and you can all be together in a way that you possibly can’t be if you’re a doctor working long hours, or if you’re a nurse of school teacher.
