As per what thePearl Harborstar shared during an appearance onLate Night with Conan O’Brien(viaHDaFicionado on YouTube):
“My husband was bummed when he saw the movie. He was like, ‘She wears little short shorts. She has no hormones. She’s cool.'”
Apparently, judging from his review, Beckinsale is a lot different in real life than the person she played onscreen!
In fact, Wiseman even started complaining about how he wanted to have a wife like the character she played in the movie! As she continued to share withConan O’Brien:
“[My husband said] ‘Where’s that wife? I want that wife. […] Like, why did I get you?'”

As she laughingly admitted about her and Sandler’s characters in the movie during an interview with theDark Horizon:
“I thoroughly enjoyed that, as I didn’t have to take him home, didn’t have to yell at him about going and playing golf or all of that stuff that would probably really bug me in real life if I was married to him.”
In fact, that wasn’t all, considering how theTotal Recallactress also admitted that she was“kind of sad”when the shoot came to an end, bringing an end toher onscreen marriage with Sandler’s Michael Newmanas well.

“I had the sort of total movie pleasure of everything apart from anything leaking or gross or leaving me on my own or any of that, so it was perfect, a blissful marriage and I was really kind of sad when it was over.”
