Amy Poehler and Will Arnett’s Hollywood Pals ‘Caught in the Crossfire’ of Their Competing Podcasts
After what Will Arnett has called a “brutal” 2016 divorce from Amy Poehler, the exes eventually got to a good place where they amicably co-parented their two sons.
Now a source tells Star the pair are at odds again — this time over custody of their friends.
“Even though it’s been years since Amy and Will ended their marriage, it’s still one of those situations where their Hollywood pals get caught in the crossfire,” says the source, noting that their circle includes such big names as Jennifer Aniston, Bradley Cooper and Aubrey Plaza. “It’s got even more tense now that Amy has entered the podcasting fray.”
The Parks and Recreation alum, 54, helms the highly rated Good Hang, while Will, 55, has made millions as a cohost of the top-rated Smartless podcast with Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes.
“If you’re a celebrity who knows any of these people personally, you are compelled to pick sides if you’re going to guest on either of those shows,” says the source. “That puts their friends in an awkward position as they promote their current and upcoming projects.”
