We spoke to Sandra, Melissa, and Paul this morning about the broadening opportunities for female-driven comedies — which Paul has referred to as "bramances" — that he helped champion with Bridesmaids. Sandra also described her bond with Melissa as a true "love connection," and Paul said his stars instantly hit it off when they first got together to rehearse, chatting about their kids and becoming fast friends.
