Kyra Sedgwick recalls shooting 'emotional' scene with Kevin Bacon
The loved-up couple - who have been married for 36 years - star in the new rom-com movie, and Kyra admits that one scene proved to be particularly difficult to shoot.
Kyra, 59, said at the Tribeca Festival in New York: "There was a moment in the break-up scene where I could not — I was very emotional. I knew [my character] would be emotional, but I had a little crossover of like, 'Oh my God, what if this had happened [in real life]?'
"Instead of what happened, which is that we're still together, but 'What if this had happened?' And I got very emotional about it."
Kevin recently admitted that he relished the experience of working with his wife.
The 66-year-old actor told People: "As soon as you get into a into a scene, you have a responsibility to your partner to make that scene work, and we've had a partnership for 37 years.
"To be able to take some of that time that we've had together and put it up on the screen is just really fun."
Meanwhile, Kevin revealed earlier this year that he's tried to shield his children from fame.
The Hollywood star - who has son Travis, 35, and daughter Sosie, 33, with his wife - never took his kids to movie premieres during their younger years and he's always tried to shield them from the pressures of fame.
Speaking on Mythical Kitchen's 'Last Meals', Kevin shared: "We really avoided it. I think we really felt like it would be nice for them to have some … we knew how weird this life was.
"When you realise that you will always … that there's always a chance that you're gonna walk out of the house and somebody is going to know who you are or look at you or have some kind of point of you about you from a piece of work that you've done, you start to go, 'Okay, it's great. This is what I always wanted, but it's a weird way to live. 99 percent good, but a little weird.'"

Hugh Jackman's ex Deborra-Lee Furness 'ready to start dating' after divorce
Deborra-Lee Furness is reportedly being encouraged to "start dating again". The 69-year-old actress - whose divorce from Hollywood star Hugh Jackman was finalised last month - is said to be open to finding love again, but she's not rushing into another relationship. A source told Woman's Day magazine: "Deb is finally starting to heal and talk about what she wants in her life going forward. "She's got an incredible support system that's been there every step of the way, helping her to pick up the pieces of her life. "They are encouraging her to start dating again." It's said while Deborra-Lee has been getting offers from some "incredible guys", she won't be tempted to settle. The source added: "She knows what she brings to the table." Deborra-Lee and Hugh split in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage, but she only filed for divorce in May, and it was signed off by a judge a few weeks ago. According to PEOPLE magazine, online court records from New York's Suffolk County Supreme Court show that a judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, and later uploaded to the website on June 23, with the case not listed as 'Disposed'. When Deborra-Lee filed for divorce from the 56-year-old actor, she indicated the terms were uncontested and would only need a sign-off from a judge. It was revealed days after the filing that the pair had begun to separate their shared assets. The former couple met on the set of the Australian TV series Correlli in 1995 and married on 11 April 1996. They adopted their son, Oscar, now 24, in 2000, and their daughter, Ava, 19, in 2005. In September 2023, they confirmed their separation in a joint statement shared with People, saying: 'Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. "We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. 'Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.' In May, Deborra-Lee issued a separate statement discussing the emotional impact of the split. She said: 'My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal. It's a profound wound that cuts deep.' Deborra added: 'However, I believe in a higher power and that God or the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working for us. 'That belief has helped me navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage.' According to The Daily Mail, a source claimed Hugh was 'blindsided' by Deborra's comments and 'extremely disappointed', alleging there had been 'an unwritten understanding that she would not trash him to the press'.

Jessica Alba 'is not interested in a relationship right now'
Jessica Alba is "focused on herself and her kids" - rather than her love life. The 44-year-old actress is "enjoying being single again" following her split from husband Cash Warren - but Jessica is "not interested in a relationship right now". A source told People: "She's been getting a lot of attention since the divorce. She's flattered and definitely enjoying being single again. She's gone on some dates, but it's nothing serious — she's focused on herself and her kids. She's not interested in a relationship right now." Jessica began filming The Mark, an upcoming thriller film, earlier this month, and the actress is now "doing what she loves". The insider explained: "She's in a great place. She's excited to get back to filming. She's doing what she loves and keeping her circle tight." Jessica announced her split from Cash via a social media post in January. The Hollywood star explained at the time that she was ready to "embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution". Jessica said in her statement: "I've been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years - both as an individual and in partnership with Cash. I'm proud of how we've grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals. "We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time. (sic)" By contrast, in May 2024, Jessica took to social media to celebrate her wedding anniversary, admitting that she felt "proud of us for making it this far". The brunette beauty wrote on Instagram: "I'm proud of us for making it this far. There is no real set of rules or guidance that can ever prepare you for what it means to commit to another person and choose to be family. "Through thick and thin we have continually found our way back to each other and have chosen one another. Cheers to us, I love you."

Billie Lourd predicts her kids will love Smurfs movie
Billie Lourd's kids will "freak out" about her Smurfs role. The 32-year-old actress stars in the new animated movie alongside the likes of Rihanna, James Corden, Sandra Oh, Jimmy Kimmel, Octavia Spencer, Alex Winter, and Hannah Waddingham, and Billie is convinced that her kids will love the film. Billie - who has son Kingston, four, and daughter Jackson, two - told People: "I just love to do anything that they'll care about." The actress - who previously appeared as Lieutenant Connix in the Star Wars sequel trilogy - is "so excited" for her kids to watch the new movie. She said: "This might be my career peak because it's something that they're gonna freak out about, and I'm just so excited for them to watch it and love me more." Meanwhile, Rihanna - Billie's Smurfs co-star - is also delighted that her kids can now finally enjoy the movie. The chart-topping singer - who has RZA, three, and Riot, 23 months, with A$AP Rocky - recently told Extra: "We get to watch the movie together for the first time. I get to watch it in its full completion. So, that should be interesting. "Everybody gets to watch it on the 18th. So, we're really going for it now. It's finally being birthed." Rihanna explained that the film's premiere felt "so far away" when the project began. She said: "We've been working on it for so long. So, like, a few years now, actually. And it's happening … You know, you start working on something and 2025 feels so far away and then we're here." Rihanna's sons weren't aware of her involvement with the movie. However, the singer - who has largely put her music career on hold in recent years, in order to focus on other ventures - was looking forward to seeing the reaction of her boys. Asked if they knew that she was playing Smurfette in the film, Rihanna replied: "The boys know nothing, they're being introduced to Smurf Village right now, the blue carpet, and next is going to be me watching their reaction when they realise my voice is coming out of the screen. I can't wait for that one."
