Rebel Wilson's rumored boyfriend joins her new film

Actress Rebel Wilson's rumored boyfriend, comedian Mickey Gooch, Jr., has signed on to join the cast of her upcoming film, How to Be Single.

The Bridesmaids star sparked speculation of a new romance when she and Gooch, Jr. were spotted getting cosy at a New York Rangers ice hockey game earlier this month (May15).

While neither has commented on the purported relationship, they will be sharing the screen in the new romantic comedy.

Filming is already underway in New York City, and Gooch, Jr. joins a star-studded cast which includes Dakota Johnson, Leslie Mann and Alison Brie.

The movie follows a group of single people in the Big Apple as chronicled by a young female author writing a book about bachelorettes.
