Will Ferrell reveals how acting helped to bring him and Viveca Paulin back together
Will Ferrell's most recent comic role is as an Icelandic singer named Lars Erickssong in Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga, but if it wasn't for his Swedish wife Viveca Paulin and her family introducing him to Eurovision contest, we likely wouldn't have the movie at all. Ferrell and Paulin met at a Los Angeles acting class in 1995 and began dating, but their romance was cut short when Ferrell was called to New York to become a member of Saturday Night Live.  The comedian told Elle Magazine that he was dating someone else by the time he made his SNL debut, but he continued to talk with Paulin on the phone.

REVIEW: Netflix’s Eurovision film fills the void left by this year’s song contest
 lacking in the trailer.In the words of Graham Norton in the film: ‘Okay, so not as bad as we expected.’Considering the amount of effort gone into capturing the Eurovision properly, we shouldn’t have doubted it would be done well but when it comes to Will Ferrell humour, it can be hit and miss.Thankfully, he is a fan of the song contest (his wife is Swedish and introduced him to it) and even attended the show on a number of occasions as ‘research’ for the film.The attention to detail he and Andrew Steele wrote into the script, and that director David Dobkin included, doesn’t go unnoticed.There’s circular camera panning, pyrotechnics, costume changes, corny video links with the judges votes and the quips from Graham Norton are as on point as
