Why everyone loved working with Melissa McCarthy on ‘Only Murders’
Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez sit down with USA TODAY to talk about the new season of “Only Murders in the Building” and working with Melissa McCarthy on the show.
Melissa McCarthy may be a comedy legend, but she’s got plenty of dramatic flair, too.
McCarthy took to Instagram over the weekend to let followers in on an intimate date night with longtime husband (and fellow comic) Ben Falcone. In a carousel of photos posted Aug. 9, McCarthy showed off some homemade pottery she had crafted at Wild Clay, a studio just east of Los Angeles.
The first several photos show the “Bridesmaids” star holding up her hands covered in clay, and posing with several of her projects, but the final shot is the most true to form – McCarthy, 54, and Falcone, 51, look comically serious as they recreate an iconic scene from the 1990 movie “Ghost.”
McCarthy looks wistfully to the side as Falcone, seated behind her, has his hands overlaced with hers and looks straight into the camera. In the middle of them is the pottery wheel, the site of a sensual scene between Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze in the original film.
“We had the BEST time at Wild Clay LA!!!!!!!,” McCarthy wrote alongside the post. “Joshua was an amazing teacher. I really found my inner Demi!! Grand Opening Soon!!”
The couple, who love to ham it up together, have been married since 2005 and share two daughters: Vivian, 18, and Georgette, 15.
“He’s nothing but supportive, and he’s super smart,” McCarthy previously told People of her husband. “He makes me gut-laugh, like crazy gut-laugh, four or five times a day. I hit the jackpot!”
The couple has also shared the screen over a dozen times, starring alongside one another in films like “Bridesmaids,” “Cook Off!” and “Identity Thief.”
