January 1, 2026, 11:00 AM ET – Jane Seymour, star of the hit 2005 comedy “Wedding Crashers,” is opening up about the anxieties surrounding one of the film’s most memorable scenes. In a recent interview, the 74-year-old actress revealed that both she and co-star Owen Wilson were initially apprehensive about filming the scene where her character, Kathleen Cleary, attempts to seduce Wilson’s John Beckwith.

“Owen was actually very nervous about the whole experience, and I was too!” Seymour told People Magazine. She credited embodying her character, Kathleen Cleary to overcome her reservations “Jane Seymour might have a problem with what you’re going to do, but currently I’m not her. I’m Kathleen.”

In the scene, Seymour’s character famously removes her top and playfully teases Wilson’s character, culminating in the memorable line, “Call me Kitty Cat.” Seymour noted the director had to instruct her to relax her fingers during the shoot. She further revealed that it was Wilson who improvised the perfect punchline, calling his character a “pervert,” which she feels elevated the scene.

Seymour also clarified that clever camera work and movie magic created the illusion of nudity. “The way we shot it, people think I’m naked, but no one ever saw anything,” she explained.

The actress views the “Wedding Crashers” role as a turning point in her career, allowing her to showcase her comedic skills. “It was all in Owen’s eyes and the way we played it, and I am very proud of it,” she stated.
