So long as Isla Fisher doesn't have to hear about the most dangerous stunts he pulls on set until after they're done, being married to Sacha Baron Cohen has been just great.
Of course, then it was right back to laughing in the face of possible death when he embarked on hiswhen it all worked out, with Cohen winning a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Comedy for"Most of all, thank you to my incredibly patient wife, Isla, who has put up with all my madness," he said in his socially distanced Globes acceptance speech, a beaming Fisher on the couch next to him.
"I somehow ended up saying the phrase, 'I won't be able to speak to you again unless you put this joke back in!'" she recalled, laughing. "Anyway, he cut it out. And we're still married." She readily acknowledged, "looking back," that Cohen was right about the scene. "Now that I've seen , I think it works," Fisher admitted. "It does make another joke work even more.
And he and Fisher were engaged by the time the Scottish-Australian actress gave her breakout performance as the sweet 'n' psycho Gloria in 2005'sAfter which, ironically, she went through a dry spell of, first, a year of nothing, followed by "a litany of roles that were always the wife of someone super funny, so the eye-rolling part," she told Garner. "Like, they got to be really funny and my character was basically the straight man.
"I'm lucky enough to be able to stay at home and be with my family," she said. "I used to devour every script, but now I'm focused on my family life, which has brought me so much satisfaction in a deep way."At the same time—normal couple alert!—she and Cohen did heed the advice about the importance of regular date nights for longtime partners.
"Obviously I always respected him," she added, "but having been around so many big comedy stars and seeing how they improvise and stuff—and then to work with my husband and see him be the best improv comedian I've ever worked with, I loved it."
