Patrick Wilson has come to the defence of former co-star Katherine Heigl.

The actress came under fire last week in article that described her as difficult to work with on the set of comedy Life As We Know It.

But Wilson, who worked with the actress on North of Hell, says that he would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Speaking to The Huffington Post the actor said: "Now listen, this article that came out was because - and you know how the press works - she sold a show last week to NBC. Well, great!

"So what do people do? Hey, let's rip her down a few days later. So they write this article about Grey's Anatomy. We're still talking about when she left Grey's Anatomy how many years ago? We all have reputations, whether they're true or not."

"She was not only not all of those things - 'Oh, she was late and never came out of the trailer'.

"Nothing. She showed up, worked her tail off, super funny, super gracious, great to the cast, great to the crew, and was a total pro. Someone that's been doing it forever.

"And you walk away and you go, well that's a great actress and a great person to work with. And I'd work again with her in a heartbeat. So I have to defend her because she couldn't have been a better experience."

Patrick Wilson is enjoying huge success as his new movie Insidious Chapter 2 is currently top of the U.S. box office.
