My Best Friend's Wedding cast reunites for EW's romantic comedy issue

The cast of 'My Best Friend's Wedding reunited in style for Entertainment Weekly's annual romantic comedy issue.



Rupert Everett, Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts, and Dermot Mulroney who were the stars of the 1997 romantic comedy film directed by P.J. Hogan from a screenplay by Ronald Bass looked all stylish in the magazine photo shoot.

The actors also shared their memories of filming the feature, with Diaz recognizing it as "a huge break," coming fairly early on in her film career.

JULIA ROBERTS: I just thought it was really clever and just funny. All the physical comedy I loved. Lots of falling down and falling through things, falling all over myself, falling over Dermot. The scene, for me, that made it feel so authentic and earnest is when I finally tell Dermot’s character, “Pick me. Let me make you happy.” Just that line: That’s just so succinct and sweet and meaningful.

RUPERT EVERETT: When I got the part, it was literally two lines in the script. I thought it was kind of a career-icide move at first. P.J. Hogan made me test, like, three or four times for the film. I kept saying, “P.J., what can I do? There’s nothing I can do.”

DERMOT MULRONEY: I liked that he was the lead in the movie and Julia Roberts liked him. I liked those, like, obvious elements, but he had his own little story. He was a sportswriter and he was in love in ways that many people still argue with me about. I wouldn’t give this movie up for anything.

Diaz revealed she has a super-fan in her own family.

DIAZ: My sister-in-law [Nicole Richie] is obsessed with this movie. We went to Chicago, like, a year and a half ago, and she took me to every single [location]. She’s like, “Remember when you were walking down the street right here and then…” It was so much fun. I was like, “Yes, I think I do.” She’s like, “I do, and it really means a lot to me, so I would like for you to pretend like you do.”
