Sydney - The love interest in the box-office bombshell Wedding Crashers, Isla Fisher, said on Monday she was likely to marry British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen in her native Australia.
Fisher, a former staple of the Home and Away soap opera television series, has been engaged to Cohen, better known as Ali G, for about a year.
Fisher, 29, is in Australia to promote the romantic comedy Wedding Crashers that stars Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn and which is her breakthrough Hollywood film.
This week Wedding Crashers overtook Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to become the top box-office earner.
It tells the story of John Beckwith (Wilson) and Jeremy Klein (Vaughn), who crash weddings to meet single women.
Fisher plays Gloria Cleary, Vaughn's love interest.
Cohen has achieved worldwide success with "gansta rapper" Ali G and other creations, including silly Kazakh journalist Borat Sagdiyev.
He is soon to gain an even bigger audience with Borat: The Movie, a faux documentary directed by Larry Charles, who was a leading writer on the television comedy show Seinfeld.
