Vergara, Witherspoon: Comic dream

Sofia Vergara could be teaming with Reese Witherspoon on an upcoming project. The two funny gals were spotted “laughing and joking” together over tea at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills yesterday, and sources exclusively tell us the meeting was about working on a movie together. “They are both great comedic actresses, and a joint project could be fantastic,” a source told us of the potential union. A spy added, “Sofia and Reese couldn’t be more different, but they got on famously, they were laughing the whole time. They were heard talking movies and brainstorming ideas.” Witherspoon has taken time off from working as she gave birth to son Tennessee James in September. Vergara has been flexing her comedic chops on “Modern Family,” and also in ads for Pepsi. She recently filmed new ads last month, but had to endure unusually cool 46 degree temperatures in Los Angeles during the shoot. Vergara, whose famous curves were in a tiny blue minidress for the commercial, tweeted a photo of herself cuddled up in a robe and winter coat and holding a hot- water bottle on set. Sources told us everyone on the set was chilly with some of the crew wearing ski gear. There were concerns Vergara would get sick, but she “was a total pro,” sources said.
