Hollywood star Brie Larson to release party-themed cookbook
Bang showbiz | Los Angeles
Brie Larson is set to release a party-themed cookbook. The 35-year-old actress has joined forces with best friend and chef Courtney McBroom to create 'Party People', their new cookbook that they'll release later this year.
The Hollywood star told People: 'Through [our friendship], we've thrown many parties together. We have a really solid group of girlfriends, and whether it's been road trips or at someone's house, parties, whatever, we're really good at celebrating. And part of it is because we love doing it.
'It's not just about the food. It's about knowing how to cook things confidently so that you can enjoy your party … the recipes are based off of those things so you can maximize time with your guests and not feel like you're the one stuck in the kitchen while everybody else is having fun.'
'Party People' will feature more than 100 recipes and party ideas - but Courtney insists 'Party People' isn't a conventional cookbook.
She said: 'It doesn't have to be hard. You don't have to do a ton of work to bring all of your friends together and your loved ones and to surround yourself with community. And that was one of the main things we wanted to do, is make sure we were helping people do that.' Meanwhile, Brie previously revealed that she hopes her work helps people to 'feel less alone'.

Seth Rogen loves The 40-Year-Old Virgin's ‘filthiness'
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Seth Rogen loved cinemagoers embracing the 'filthiness' of 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin'. The 43-year-old actor starred alongside Paul Rudd and Steve Carell in the 2005 comedy film, and Seth still has fond memories of making the movie. He told People: 'It was the first movie I made where I feel like … I was a co-producer on the movie and I helped write a lot of it with Steve Carell and Judd [Apatow].' Seth had a big role in creating the movie's tone and he loves that it was so warmly received by film fans. He said: 'It was the first movie that I was a part of that I really had a creative voice in, and a lot of the R-rated humor and tone came from me really advocating for that. 'And so it was really rewarding when it came out and people really responded to both the heart and the filthiness of it.' Seth and his writing partner, Evan Goldberg, now have their own production company, and the comedy star previously reflected on his changing status in Hollywood. Speaking to Sharp magazine, Seth explained: 'There was a meeting with an executive who was giving us notes when we were young who said, 'I got into this because I love movies and now it's my job to ruin them.' 'That one sentence really resonated heavily with us. Most importantly, we started to view it as being very comedic, like, it's a very funny dynamic if you love movies and the people associated with them. 'A lot of these people who work at studios just want to be liked by the filmmakers and the actors and the writers, and they just want to feel as though they're part of the creative side of things. But at the same time, they're constantly having to do things for their own self-preservation.'
