Anne Hathaway will not appear on the Hot Ones podcast during her press tour for the film Verity because her doctor has warned that eating spicy wings could trigger early labour. The actress, who is pregnant with her third child, said she had already filmed an episode of the show in character for a promotional scene but stopped after the doctor’s advice.
Hathaway explained that she had completed the first three wings before switching to dummy wings and that she had intended to do the full challenge as part of the film’s promotion. However, the medical advice has delayed the interview, with Hathaway saying she may return to the show next year.
