It’s Reese Witherspoon’s 46th birthday, and she has a special handmade gift from Jennifer Garner coming her way. Garner is currently in prep mode for “The Last Thing He Told Me,” and she has a woodturning teacher showing her the ropes. Witherspoon is an executive producer on the film, and Garner decided to gift her the first bowl she made. “When your friend is your boss lady and your next role is a woodturner by trade, your friend gets the very first bowl you make,” she wrote. “Happy birthday, dreammaker.”
Garner and Witherspoon have been besties for years, and she always makes her feel special on her birthday. Except she usually does it with music. In 2018 the 13 Going on 30 star busted out her alto saxophone and marching band outfit and serenaded her on a green lawn. “Hey, @reesewitherspoon! I don’t know why you’re on my mind today,” Garner wrote in the caption.
The prideful “band geek” serenaded her again in 2019. “Many moons ago, my high school marching band played this song for homecoming. Today I play it for my boo,” she wrote. “We have a groovy kind of love. Happy birthday, Lady.”
It’s no doubt Garner and Witherspoon are going to have a blast making The Last Thing He Told Me. Garner called her role has Hannah Hall a “dream role,” and Witherspoon has been a fan of the book, including it in her Reeses’ Book Club.
Julia Roberts was originally going to play the role, but she dropped out with reports citing scheduling conflicts. The adaptation of Laura Dave’s New York Times best-selling novel tells the story of a woman who builds an unexpected relationship with her stepdaughter after her husband disappears.
