In a surprising turn, Vanessa Kirby discovered that feigning pregnancy for The Fantastic Four: First Steps proved to be harder than her genuine pregnancy experience.
The actress starring as Sue Storm in the latest superhero film is at present anticipating her first baby with partner Paul Rabil. On the talk show “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” she discussed the contrast between using a prop belly for the movie role and her genuine pregnancy.
Upon addressing her on the stage, host Seth Meyers jokingly commented about her present baby bump, saying, “Wow, isn’t it amazing that you managed to keep up with your role!
Kirby expressed her belief that many consider her real-life pregnancy to be some sort of publicity gimmick. She finds the coincidental timing to be quite unusual. Kirby further explained how they constructed her on-screen pregnancy, revealing that her fake belly is essentially made of foam. When it’s foam, it feels rather light and somewhat comical. Therefore, she frequently requested Flick, her costume supervisor, to make the prop heavier.
Nonetheless, the actress soon came to regret her decision. As they experimented with various ideas, she eventually filled her abdomen with weighty rice packs, which became incredibly burdensome, causing her severe back pain, as she reminisced.
Kirby has been experiencing a genuine pregnancy for several months now, and she’s found that the fake belly used in the film pales in comparison. This one feels significantly lighter. Consequently, I unnecessarily caused myself lower back pain.
In reply, Meyers humorously suggested, “Perhaps there’s some truth to what you’re saying, similar to doing something regrettable before becoming pregnant.” The actress agreed, saying “Yes, that’s accurate.
The “The Crown” actress remarked that, following a period of transporting bulky bags of rice, she reached a stage where she wondered aloud, “Perhaps it’s time to lighten the load? I kept thinking, ‘Ah,’ frequently.
The movie “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” opening this coming Friday, features an ensemble cast that includes Pedro Pascal, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, Ralph Ineson, and Julia Garner.
