Rebel Wilson "tells it all" in upcoming bio: see how she changed over time

Rebel Wilson says she is revealing her deepest secrets in her memoir 'Rebel Rising,' set to appear in the Spring of 2024. "I've been writing the book for the past 18 months," she told People magazine. "I just sat there by myself as if I'm just telling the story to a friend."

"I just kind of found my writing style — as if I'm sitting opposite my friend, telling you all my life's deepest secrets, which is a bit scary," she said. This means we can expect several interesting revelations from the Australian movie star!

The actress went through a lot of changes in the past four years. Her physical transformation could be followed on Instagram (@rebelwilson), where she posts a lot of pictures for her fans.

Since March 2020, Rebel has lost 44 kilograms or 97 pounds. Her goal, she told her 9 million fans on Instagram (@rebelwilson), was to stay at the desired weight of 75 kilograms or 165 pounds.

Having dated the billionaire Jacob Busch for most of 2020, Rebel Wilson was single again by the beginning of 2021. But her confidence was peaking. "Goes to show you, ladies, you don't have to be a certain size to get a boyfriend," she had told her followers during an Instagram live.

In 2022, Rebel Wilson presented her new partner to the world: fashion entrepreneur Ramona Agruma. In early 2023, she announced that she and her girlfriend were getting married.

Australian by birth (1980), Rebel Wilson grew up in Sydney, where she initially planned to study Mathematics. At the last minute she changed course and pursued a double degree in Law and Arts at the University of New South Wales. Today, she is one of the leading comedians in Hollywood.

Rebel Wilson's television debut was 17 years ago, at the age of 23. In the Australian SBS comedy 'Fat Pizza' (image) she brought to life several funny characters. Her best-known alter ego is Toula.

Another Australian TV production, this time written, produced, and played by Wilson herself, was 'Bogan Pride' in 2008. It was a musical comedy for SBS One. Years earlier, she had been to the Australian Youth Theatre (AYTP) where she trained as an actress

Her Hollywood debut, after moving to New York, came with 'Ghost Rider,' a Marvel adaptation. She didn't have a big part. Wilson played a young woman who was mugged in an alley.

Upon her arrival in the United States, Rebel Wilson signed with William Morris Endeavor's agency, and from her hand came her first big role in 'Bachelorette' (2011), with Judd Apatow, and 'Bridesmaids' (2012).

Success came with 'Pitch Perfect.' It was one of the comedies of the year in 2012 and Wilson's Fat Amy was applauded by audiences and critics alike. The movie cost $17 million and raised almost $120 million.

The film's sequel would take no more than three years to arrive. Same cast, same team and the only change was Elizabeth Banks as director. The success was similar: a budget of $29 million and an income of $287 million. Fat Amy became part of Hollywood comedy history.

In 2017, the trilogy came to an end with 'Pitch Perfect 3'. In all those years, Rebel Wilson was never overly concerned with her figure. What's more, she revealed that for some films she had to sign a contract promising not to lose weight.

The cast of the 'Pitch Perfect' trilogy was very close. All the actresses have formed a bond and they get together whenever they can.

The friendship between Rebel Wilson and Anna Kendrick is especially strong. As Rebel Wilson revealed in the trailer for the third part, they became closer with every film they shot.

Fat Amy got Rebel Wilson the Teen Choice award for Best Comedy Actress, MTV Movie award for Best Newcomer Actress and MTV Movie award for Best Musical Moment. Her presence at the galas was a blast, and since then she has become a regular at every fun-filled shindig in Hollywood.

The Rebel Wilson you see on the big screen is very similar to the actress in real life. Warm, funny and always with a friendly gesture for her fans.

At every premiere she attends, it is common to see Rebel Wilson signing autographs, having her photos taken, and even stopping to chat with her fans.

A star in her own right, Rebel Wilson filmed 'The Hustle' with Anne Hathaway in 2019.

She also appeared in the star-filled cast of 'Isn't it Romantic,' along with Adam DeVine, Liam Hemsworth and Priyanka Chopra. Rebel Wilson was the absolute favorite in this movie.

And then there was 'JoJo Rabbit', a movie nominated for six Oscars and one of the big revelations of 2019. Directed by Taika Waititi, Rebel Wilson brought to life Fräulein Rahm, an instructor at the Hitler Youth camp in which the young protagonist of the movie enlisted.

Unfortunately, 2019 also brought a tragic cinematic surprise: 'Cats.' Tom Hooper's musical was ranked among the worst films in history, it was a box-office flop, and Rebel Wilson got a Razzie Award for her role of Jennyanydots.

But 2020 turned out to be a good year for the actress, despite the pandemic and the halting of film shoots all over the world. She made an amazing transformation.

Rebel Wilson set out to lead a super-healthy life and change her look completely. This is her at the Australian Open in January 2020.

This is her, with a completely new look, clothing, hairdo and all, in September 2021. Since then, Rebel Wilson has been making fewer films, but we now know what kept her so busy: the book!

In 2022, Rebel Wilson appeared in a great comedy, 'Senior Year,' about a cheerleader who wakes up from a coma of 20 years and goes back to school, as well as the drama 'The Almond and the Seahorse.'

She's also expected to appear in several other films, for example in the role of Lady Capulet in 'Verona.' It seems, therefore, that we'll be seeing many different sides of Rebel Wilson!
