Kristen Wiig‘s new Lionsgate comedy film has pulled out of Georgia following the anti-abortion bill signing.

The 45-year-old Saturday Night Live star and Annie Mumolo’s Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar has taken this action over the so-called “heartbeat bill,” Time reports.

Amazon’s The Power series has also pulled out of the state in an effort to protect female reproductive rights. Director Reed Morano wrote on Instagram, “Via @time @sisterpicturestv It feels wrong for a reason. And it felt wrong to us to go ahead and make our show and take money/tax credit from a state that is taking this stance on the abortion issue. We just couldn’t do it.”

Additionally, actors like Jason Bateman have also reportedly pledged to leave the state if the bill becomes law, which would take effect on January 1.

Jason Bateman happily strikes a pose alongside his co-stars Julia Garner and Laura Linney while attending the screening & reception for their Netflix series Ozark held at the Linwood Dunn Theater on Sunday (April 7) in Los Angeles.

The three stars sat down to answer questions about the show at a special Q&A moderated by Mike Fleming Jr..

Jason described his character Marty Byrde as the representative for the audience’s perspective, and in the first season he didn’t want Marty to “get riled up — it might get too noisy. We will go further with that in the next season,” he said (via Deadline). “My character is a little less stable. There will be a more interesting manifestation of that in this next year.”

“For Wendy, they had a marriage that was solid and functioned well, but they didn’t really know each other,” Laura added about playing Jason‘s wife. “They are getting to know each other in ways that they never expected.”

The guest list for Jennifer Aniston‘s 50th birthday party had as many stars as most Oscars and Golden Globes parties and we’re recapping the event with a massive photo gallery, plus the full list of stars in attendance.

The big surprise of the night was when Jen‘s ex-husband Brad Pitt showed up for the event. Fans rightfully freaked out on social media because of the possible reunion. The couple shares a lot of history and don’t forget, there was no social media when they split back in 2005!

Jennifer‘s actual birthday is on Monday (February 11), but she celebrated on Saturday (February 9) with a big bash at the Sunset Tower Hotel in Los Angeles.
