Summary
- Actresses reunited 15 years after filming Bridesmaids.
- Cast took a party bus to a male strip club for research.

Rose Byrne and Kristen Wiig, stars of the acclaimed comedy 'Bridesmaids,' recently reunited to reminisce about their experiences making the film, now 15 years later. During their conversation, they disclosed an amusing behind-the-scenes anecdote involving a cast outing.
Wiig explained that she had organized a party bus for the entire cast, which included Byrne, Maya Rudolph, Melissa McCarthy, Ellie Kemper, and Wendi McLendon-Covey. The destination was a male strip club, which Wiig humorously suggested was for 'research.' This outing proved to be a significant bonding experience for the ensemble.
The actresses also detailed the creation of the memorable engagement party toast scene. Wiig revealed that the dialogue was largely improvised, with director Paul Feig encouraging them to continue. They managed to film the extended, competitive toast sequence in only one or two takes, showcasing their on-screen chemistry and comedic timing.
