Quotable: Michelle

"I call him dad," she joked referring to Zac playing her father in the movie (even though she's two years older than him). "We sort of lucked out with a great cast of comedy people, working with Leslie Mann and Tom Lennon is sort of like a mini-little dream come true because you watch these actors and admire them and all their comedic abilities and I just kind of want to sit and look at them and see what they're going to do."

"She's pretty cool. I have bright green extensions in or like black and blonde extensions in or burgundy ones. She's a really fun girl, your typical 17-year-old girl, kind of rebelling against her parents. So she's being inspired by her boyfriend who is a rebel with a tattoo and just sort of angry at her parents; [she] doesn't understand why they're getting divorced and trying to go through her everyday life not caring. It's funny because even though Maggie rebels with her clothes, she's much more soft-spoken."

"I don't know, but it's nice coming to work with Zac Efron. And a lot of cheek shimmer. I have an amazing makeup artist who I've worked with for years and comes to set, so... And working with Zac Efron and Matt Perry – not a bad day on set."

"And you know what? He's so not affected. He's like the loveliest thing and doing a great job on the movie. We are all really proud of him." - on Zac

Quotable: Others on Michelle

"We auditioned a lot of girls, and a lot of girls wanted the part," says Jennifer. "And ultimately what we decided to do – and I'm really happy that we did this – was we had our top choices audition with Zac. There were two things; we wanted – and this has always been important to Adam and I – we have a pet peeve about this, when people cast kids that look nothing like the parents. So we wanted to cast kids that could be the daughter and son of Leslie Mann and Zac. And she was just the funniest with him without having any… "Sexual chemistry," Adam added. "It became creepy. Which doesn't mean – and they adore each other. But some of the girls, you could tell, wanted to 'get on it.'"
