20 Things You Didn't Know About American Psycho
3. Reese Witherspoon & Mary Harron Were Both Pregnant While Making The Film
Given the obviously traumatic subject matter, it's surprising that not one but two of the film's cast and crew members were actually pregnant while American Psycho was being shot.
Reese Witherspoon was three months pregnant with her first child while shooting her role, and even more impressively, director Harron was expecting a baby while not only shooting the movie but shepherding it through post-production.
In fact, Harron's due date was merely two weeks after the film's release, and given how stressful even the simplest movie production can be, juggling it with the toils of being heavily pregnant is a practically Herculean feat.
