Jodie Comer Names 1 Thing She Wants To Never Do Again After Starring In Ryan Reynolds Blockbuster
Jodie Comer has opened up about the important lesson she gleaned from starring alongside Ryan Reynolds in the hit film Free Guy.
Back in 2021, Jodie and Ryan both appeared in the action comedy alongside the likes of Channing Tatum, Oscar winner Taika Waititi and Stranger Things star Joe Keery.
The film was a hit with both critics and audiences, with the former Killing Eve star bringing up her work in it during a recent interview with GQ.
'It was my first film and I had the most amazing experience on that job,' she said, describing the team as the 'most gentle, inclusive, support' group of people who made the shoot 'incredibly film'.
However, Jodie recalled that when filming was done, she found herself thinking: 'Ah there's something I'm not feeling. I feel like I'm not stretching. Or not discovering.'
She explained: 'I realised that it was the emotional part of it. I wasn't exercising [that] part of myself.'
'I realised that's actually where I get my fulfilment – trying to find those places,' Jodie claimed. 'If the instincts aren't there, if I'm not excited by it, then I just don't want to go near it because then I'm pulling from an artificial place. It feels almost dishonest with myself.'
Since her early work in the likes of Doctor Foster, My Mad Fat Diary, and Thirteen, Jodie has become an international star thanks to her starring role in the spy comedy-drama Killing Eve.
In 2022, she won her second Bafta for her work in the hard-hitting drama Help, picking up both an Olivier and a Tony the following year for her performance in the one-woman legal play Prima Facie.
Jodie is currently gearing upa for the release of her next film project, Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later, in which she shares the screen with Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jack O'Connell and Ralph Fiennes.

You Wanted Sydney Sweeney's Bathwater. Who Is She to Say No to Your Money?
A church in Dubrovnik possesses what it claims are Jesus Christ's diapers, and another chapel, in Rome, owns a bit of finger that supposedly belonged to Doubting Thomas — you know, the finger Thomas jammed into one of Christ's wounds. Well, neither of those compares to the good, clean fun Sydney Sweeney is offering as a personal relic you could own yourself: her bathwater. Well, sort of. The actress has teamed with Dr. Squatch, manufacturer of 'natural manly soap,' for a new bar called Sydney's Bathwater Bliss. 'We created a limited-edition soap infused with her ACTUAL bathwater,' the company said in a social media post. 'Why? Because y'all wouldn't stop asking. And Sydney said, 'Let's do it.'' And of course, the company says it 'smells like morning wood.' Purchasers must be 18 or older, which doesn't necessarily suggest good, clean fun. It's officially available June 6.

'Fans always joke about wanting my bath water,' she said. 'I was like, 'This is just such a cool way to have a conversation with the audience and give them what they want.' But then also hopefully encourage them to take care of themselves in a healthy way.' (She also said she's seen Saltburn and recognizes that movie's bathwater scene 'probably has been a huge catalyst' for her bathwater.) The actress said that she owns a bar of the soap and used it herself the very morning of the interview, but she used it in a shower. The bathwater, she said, came only from the Dr. Squatch photoshoot. 'They had a tub for me,' she said. 'And I actually got in there and I took some soap, and we had a nice little bath, and they took the water. So it's my real bath water.' At least that's cleaner than an ancient severed finger.

Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon: A Complete Relationship Timeline
METROPOLIS/Bauer-Griffin Since splitting from Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt has only gone red-carpet official with one woman: the mysterious Ines de Ramon, a Swiss-born jewelry exec who was previously married to Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley. Not much is known about their relationship, though they've been pictured together a number of times over the years. Here's everything we know about the couple, starting with the most recent updates up top: June: Pitt and de Ramon step out for a double date with Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid in New York, per E! September: The hard launch. They hit a Venice red carpet together with George and Amal Clooney on the first of the month, then step out in NYC on September 8, 9, and 10. August: 'Brad's been working in Europe, so they've spent a lot of time there,' a source reveals to People ahead of their impending publicity tour. 'He's serious about Ines.… He's very happy and enjoys spending time with her. She's easygoing and everyone likes her.' July: Ines de Ramon is Brad Pitt's date for the British Grand Prix in Northampton, their first official outing as a couple. Pitt was filming F1 at the time, and GQ later asked if this was intentional or a coincidence. 'No, dude, it's not that calculated,' Brad said, adding, 'If you're living, oh my God, how exhausting would that be? If you're living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve.' February: She moves in. They go to the Santa Barbara Film Festival. December: Pitt turns 60 and celebrates with a 'low key' party, which, of course, de Ramon attends. (How old is Ines? Well, in 2025, either 35 or 32, depending whom you ask.) New Year's Eve: They ring in the new year together in Mexico. It's not serious, but it is exclusive. 'They are dating and having fun,' a source tells People. 'They have a good thing going on. There is no stress. Brad is enjoying it [and] is not seeing anyone else right now.' November: The pair are first linked attending a Bono concert, alongside Cindy Crawford and her husband, Rande Gerber. At the time, a source tells People that Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon have been dating for 'a few months.' This is also the month she announces her split from Wesley. This post will be updated.
