Kim Cattrall and Leslie Bibb Talk Family, Comedy, and Their Roles in "About My Father" on Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon

In a recent episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon, I had the opportunity to sit down with stars Kim Cattrall and Leslie Bibb, two of the talented cast members of the hilarious yet heartwarming film, About My Father. The movie, which is based on the life of comedian Sebastian Maniscalco and stars Robert De Niro as Sebastian's father, explores the relationships between family members and the unique quirks that make each family special and unique.

Kim Cattrall (Sex and the City, Big Trouble In Little China) and Leslie Bibb (Popular, Iron Man) shared their thoughts on the film, their experiences on set, and how it resonated with them personally. During the interview, both actresses emphasized the importance of family in the film and how it connected with their own experiences. Bibb shared with me that, like me, she had lost her mother a few years ago, while Cattrall mentioned that she had lost her mother last year. Despite these personal losses, both actresses found solace and connection in the story of About My Father.

When discussing the movie's focus on family dynamics, Bibb said, "I feel...it's a beautiful look at how weird every family is and they have their idiosyncrasies and they do things that seem insane, but they're with love." Cattrall added that the movie is a perfect blend of comedy and heartfelt moments, making it an enjoyable watch for audiences of all adult ages.

The chemistry between the cast members is evident throughout About My Father, and both Cattrall and Bibb agreed that it was a joy to work with such a talented group. The actors also praised their co-stars, including Sebastian Maniscalco and Robert De Niro, for their incredible performances and the producers ability to bring the story to life.
