Her latest project is another collaboration with husband/director Ben Falcone. Previously they filmed "The Boss" here .

In addition, she filmed "Identity Thief" with Jason Bateman in Atlanta while Ben appeared in locally shot "What to Expect When You're Expecting."

It was during "What to Expect" that the couple popped up at Turner Field. Maybe they'll get in another visit before the Braves move!
