Someone should make a movie.
Susan Sarandon has revealed that her brother attached with considered one of her bridesmaids during her quirky 1967 wedding to ex-husband Chris Sarandon.
The Oscar-winning actress, 76, and the “Princess Bride” actor, 81, took a hilarious walk down memory lane during a live episode of Chris’ podcast, Cooking by Heart, where the one-time couple discussed their marriage and relationship together.
Throughout the hour-long show, Sarandon recounted the domestic hijinks that took place at their wedding — her mom, Lenora Criscione Tomalin, was pregnant, and her brother, Phillip Tomalin Jr., was the one sibling who could make it.
“None of my siblings could come except my brother that was right under me, who insisted upon coming… he insisted upon coming and by chance attached with considered one of the bridesmaids, so it was a really successful trip,” Sarandon joked.
The “Thelma & Louise” thespian also admitted that her mom didn’t exactly approve of her wedding, allegedly telling the 20-year-old on the time that she “can’t get married” — which Sarandon correlated to her mother being self-conscious over her current state.
“I believe she was embarrassed, she was 44, and he or she didn’t say that, she just said, ‘Oh now you possibly can’t get married,’” Sarandon recalled.
The “Stepmom” starrer said that her mother, who was “principally pregnant on a regular basis,” sat “behind the church for, like, 10 minutes,” in a black raincoat.
Her father, TV producer Philip Leslie Tomalin, also attended the bash, held at a Washington, D.C. theater, which Chris said was a “potluck wedding” — every guest bringing their very own items, corresponding to liquor.
The Post reached out to Sarandon’s reps for comment.
The couple were divorced in 1979, and shared no children together.
Nonetheless, though their marriage can have ended quite early, the pair still clearly share warm feelings for one another.
“Chris..principally saved my life together with his kindness,” an emotional Sarandon said at one point. “You may imagine I wasn’t too stable coming out of [my home] environment. And he was incredibly patient.”
“Really, I credit you with my foundation and my survival,” she said to the still-dashing octogenarian.
The podcast host also told People how much he appreciated his ex-wife.
“We each have very strong feelings for that a part of our lives and the way those formative relationships are all the time necessary, and you possibly can’t leave them behind totally,” he said.
“You’ve to revisit them sometimes — if not in nostalgia, more within the sense of, yeah, there was love there, and it still exists on a special level,” he continued. “It’s not romantic love, but still there’s love there.”
He also praised the star for being an “extraordinary human being.”
After Sarandon’s marriage to Chris, she has a longterm relationship with Tim Robbins, who she dated for 23 years after meeting in 1988.
They share two children together, director Jack Henry Robbins, 34, and musician and actor Miles Robbins, 31.
She is also a mom mom to actress Eva Amurri, 38, whom she shares with Italian director Franco Amurri.
