Brooke Shields is radiant next to Julia Roberts’ ex Benjamin Bratt who plays the man who broke her heart in the romantic comedy Mother Of The Bride
Brooke Shields shared new images on Instagram from her next film, Mother Of The Bride.
The actress, 58, who wished husband Chris Henchy a happy 60th birthday, looked better than ever in summer clothes as she was spotted with her costar Miranda Cosgrove, who plays her daughter.
And Brooke was also pictured with Benjamin Bratt, who had a romance with Julia Roberts and is best known for her appearance on Law & Order.
‘It’s official… MOTHER OF THE BRIDE releases worldwide on @Netflix on May 9!! We’re so excited for you to see it, 45 days countdown,” she wrote, indicating that the photos were taken on location in Thailand, where the photos were captured over six weeks.
Brooke stars as Lana, a woman who travels to the Southeast Asian kingdom when her daughter, played by Miranda, announces that she is getting married there in a month to her boyfriend, played by Sean Teale.
The drama surrounding the hasty marriage is further complicated when Lana discovers that her future son-in-law is the offspring of the man who broke her heart decades ago (Bratt).

Shields, who also serves as executive producer, opened up about the project in 2013 People.
Bratt, 60, stars as her former love, and the actress said it’s “pretty easy for her co-star to be a love interest.”
Chad Michael Murray, 42, seems like a romantic rival for Lana’s affections.
The film also stars Rachael Harris (Suits), Michael McDonald (MADtv), Wilson Cruz (My So-Called Life), Tasneem Roc (The Bureau of Magical Things) and Dalip Sondhi (Frayed).
Shields said she was happy to take on the project and praised director Mark Waters and Netflix’s Director of Original Film, Christina Rogers.
“(Christina has) been the champion of really pushing and supporting these stories for women over 40 to be in a rom-com, that’s not just everything,” she said.
‘Yes, we focus on young, beautiful, fresh love, and we want that, but she does not ignore my target group.
“And to make that wish come true, a new chance at love and all that.”
Cosgrove, who said she has a good relationship with her own mother, enjoyed working with the mother of two, who shares daughters Rowan, 20, and Grier, 17, with Henchy.

During the six-week shoot in Thailand, Shields said the cast bonded over dance lessons and pickleball practice. “We had so much pickleball practice, so all our free time was spent dancing rehearsals, learning pickleball, or practicing pickleball.”
“Brooke is just very warm and loving, and she’s the kind of person where, even if you’ve only talked to her for an hour, you feel like you’ve known her for a long time. She’s just really hot, the first iCarly star said.
The model said the cast bonded over dance lessons and pickleball practice.
“We had so many dance rehearsals on our days off, and we ended up just working out together,” the actress revealed.
“Then we had so much pickleball practice that all our free time was spent dancing rehearsals, learning pickleball, or practicing pickleball.”
“It was like we could all do it together and laugh with each other through the whole process,” she explained.
