Pregnant actor Anne Hathaway said her doctor advised her not to appear on “Hot Ones” during the “Verity” press tour because she might go into early labor. She has not attempted the full 10-wing challenge and said she may try it next year.
Hathaway said she ate the first three wings for real while filming the movie’s fictional “Hot Ones” scene, then switched to dummy wings. She wanted her first complete, real challenge to happen on the show rather than while playing Verity Crawford.
Hathaway suggested adding fictional Gayle King and “Hot Ones” appearances to Verity’s scripted press tour to underscore how famous author Verity Crawford is. The film opens worldwide in theaters Oct. 2.
