While Paul Rudd's wife, Julie Yaeger, may spend her time away from the spotlight, she is well respected in the film community. Yaeger kicked off her career as a publicist in the 1990s and 2000s. She eventually made the switch to executive producer. She served in this role during the 2005 series, "The Suite with Dave Karger."
Yaeger and Rudd worked alongside one another for the 2017 comedy flick, "Fun Mom Dinner," starring Toni Collette, Adam Scott, and Molly Shannon. This time, Yaeger served as the screenwriter – credited as Julie Rudd — and Rudd was the executive producer, though he made a brief cameo in the movie as well.
Even when she's not exactly hands-on with a project, some have drawn inspiration from her and Rudd's relationship. Writer and director Judd Apatow previously admitted that parts of "Knocked Up" and its sequel, "This Is 40," are based on aspects of Yaeger and Rudd's marriage. They even taped conversations to help Apatow complete the scripts.
