In 2002, Nia Vardalos' life changed practically overnight.
“Nobody would read it,” Vardalos said of her “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” script.
“I didn’t have any representation.
So I jumped on stage and started doing the material as a one-person show.
I thought, well, the agents will come, and maybe I can play a bridesmaid.”
And Tom called me and said, ‘I’m gonna make your movie.'"
“We’ve been respectfully separated for a lengthy period of time.
The pair share a daughter, Ilaria Vardalos Gomez.
“She does have an idea for it.
I can’t tell you what that idea is.
But I know the cast would all be into it.
We’ll see,” he said.
