Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone

Melissa McCarthy has portrayed unforgettable parts in comedy films like Bridesmaids, The Heat and Spy.  She met her husband; Ben Falcone, when they were members of the Groundlings theater in Los Angeles and have been performing together on stage and screen for almost 20 years now. Together the two have made five movies now. Their latest collaboration is the Netflix film Thunder Force, a superhero comedy which was released earlier this year. We’re taking a moment to revisit Melissa and Ben’s conversation from 2014.  They’ll talk about their high school days, including Melissa’s goth phase, their fateful meeting in the Groundlings, and what it was like getting Kathy Bates to play a role that was literally written for her.
