After working with Sacha Baron Cohen on 'The Brothers Grimsby' in 2016, Rebel Wilson hinted that she would address that experience in her 'Rebel Rising' memoir
Rebel Wilson is determined to detail her experience working with Sacha Baron Cohen on the set of The Brothers Grimsby — despite his alleged attempts to stop her memoir from being released.
In a separate video, Wilson discussed working with a then-unnamed actor. “People were like, ‘I have a no assholes policy, meaning I don’t work with assholes.’ I was like, ‘Oh, yeah. I mean that sounds sensible, logical,’” she recalled. “Then it really sunk in what they were meaning by that: Older people in the industry.”
According to the synopsis, Baron Cohen played a 'dimwitted' man named Nobby who lived in an English fishing town with his loving girlfriend and their nine children. After trying to track down his long-lost brother, Sebastian, for nearly three decades, Nobby and his sibling reunite. Sebastian, however, is a top MI6 agent who is on the run after being wrongfully accused of a crime. The siblings team up to help to save the world and prove Sebastian's innocence.
“We certainly wanted more,” Sony’s distribution chief Rory Bruer told Variety in 2016 about the disappointing box office sales. “Sacha is amazing and we love him, and we tried to crack the code on it, but it just didn’t happen for us.”Wilson originally accused Baron Cohen of harassment in 2014 after filming wrapped on The Brothers Grimsby.
