It was all of us dancing a Greek jig.”The Canadian actor and star of My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 — out now on Blu-ray and DVD — comes from her own Greek family. Vardalos and her immediate family live in Los Angeles but spend a lot of time in her hometown, Winnipeg — with the rest of her big Greek family. Fondest memory: Before I was a parent, my fondest memory was my entire family flying into Los Angeles for the premier of My Big Fat Greek Wedding. “My movie family, and my real family, were really very, very close during that entire process and we celebrated it together,” Vardalos says of her experience making the original My Big Fat Greek Wedding, the 2002 rom-com box-office smash. (Vardalos and Gomez adopted their daughter in 2008, and Vardalos later wrote a book, Instant Mom, chronicling the adoption experience and her journey into motherhood.)
