During the 2024 Governors Awards, comedian John Mulaney shared a surprising story. He claimed he once submitted an audition tape for Maggie Gyllenhaal‘s film, The Bride! He jokingly addressed the audience, anticipating they might see him as an unwelcome outsider, but insisted he’s actually considered for film roles. He then revealed a real email from his agents requesting he self-tape for a role as “Young Cop” in Gyllenhaal’s then-untitled project. However, when ScreenRant asked Gyllenhaal about the tape, she said she never received it, and even jokingly invited Mulaney to send it to her now.
John Mulaney’s comedy routine actually inspired a character name in The Bride! Jake Gyllenhaal explained that he named a character Officer Goodman after watching Mulaney’s “incredible and hilarious” bit. Louis Cancelmi, known for Sorry, Baby, ended up playing the role, and Jessie Buckley, a star of The Bride!, praised his performance. Some joked it should be called ‘Sorry, Mulaney’ instead.
