Amy Schumerdoesn’t understand the hypersexualization of maternal characters in animated movies.
“Why do moms in animations have to look like porn stars and the same age as their kids?” Schumer, 45, wrotege of the mother character’s backside and curves from 2017’s The Son of Bigfoot. “Slightly short haircut = mom?”
Directing duo Karni & Saul felt the same as the comedian, reposting her conundrum to their joint Instagram page.
“Couldn’t agree more,” a Saturday, November 7, Instagram Story caption read. “Because men design and direct them. The short answer. Get women in here, and it all changes.”

“I was throwing up through the first hour of my C-section,” Schumer recalled of childbirthon a December 2019 episode of the “Informed Pregnancy and Parenting” podcast. “It’s supposed to take about an hour and a half. Mine took over three hours because of my endometriosis.”
Schumer, who had surgery to remove endometriosis spots in 2021, further noted that labor was “brutal” and she was grateful to have Fisher’s support.
“Chris was so great. We just stared [into] each other’s eyes and he just held me there,” Schumer added at the time. “Then they let me hold Gene for a good amount of time. I got to see him and hold him.”
Schumer and Fischer, 46, ultimately went their separate ways six years later.
“Blah blah blah Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years,” the Trainwreckactress wrote in a December 2025 social media statement. “We love each other very much and will continue to focus on raising our son. We would appreciate people respecting our privacy at this time. Amicable and all love and respect! Family forever.”
Deal of the Day
Schumer filed for divorce in January and the proceedings were finalized last month.
While Schumer has not publicly addressed her new chapter, she previously has been candid about moving through difficult times.
“When things are the absolute worst is when my family is the funniest,” she acknowledged in a December 2025 social media video with Noa Tishby, while lighting the menorah to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. “Just when we hit rock bottom is when we can laugh the hardest. And I think that that’s not unique to me.”
