AceShowbiz - Mindy Kaling is currently filming scenes for "Ocean's Eight" in NYC along with her co-stars like Oscar winners Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett and Anne Hathaway as well as pop star Rihanna. However, starring in the same movie with those famous actresses actually makes her feel "so unfamous."
"With that group of women, I have never felt so unfamous in my life," Kaling revealed in a Wednesday, December 14 episode of "Late Night with Seth Meyers". "Like, I thought I was pretty cool. I have my own show. And there, people think I'm Sandra Bullock's assistant. They're like, 'Get out of my way, we need to bring Sandra her Matcha tea.' "
"There was like a sea of paparazzi taking photos and everything like that, and I was feeling kind of feeling cool and famous," the 37-year-old comedienne told Seth Meyers. "And then Rihanna took a left to her trailer, which was like not in the same direction that me and Anne were going. And the paparazzi left so quickly. It was like a desert."
Directing Mindy and her co-stars in "Ocean's Eight" is Gary Ross. Sarah Paulson, Helena Bonham Carter and Awkwafina round out the team of the titular thieves. They are joined by Damian Lewis, who is set to play the ex-lover of Bullock's character and the target of her crew's robbery.
The all-female driven reboot of "Ocean's Eleven" will arrive in U.S. theaters on June 8, 2018.
