Oscar-winning actress Anne Hathaway has reponded to Amy Schumer for mocking her in "Trainwreck", which was directed by Judd Apatow.

In the film, Schumer's character compares her boyfriend Aaron's (Bill Hader) reaction after winning a charity award to Hathaway's on Oscar night when she carried her Best Supporting Actress Academy Award trophy to after parties in 2013.

Apparently, Hathaway has seen the raunchy comedy and she took the joke in stride.

Posting a picture of her ticket stub on Instagram, she captioned it, "Dear @AmySchumer, Don't pretend like when you win your Oscar- which you could for your brilliant and refreshing writing and/or acting in @TrainwreckMovie- you won't tote it around to every Oscar party you go to. Way to slay, Annie."
 

Schumer took to Twitter to respond to Hathaway's message and claimed that it was Apatow who wrote the joke.

"I love you Anne Hathaway. I have no problem selling out and telling you that that was @JuddApatow s joke he made me say! #truth," the comedienne wrote.

Apatow defended his joke, tweeting, "I stand behind that joke @amyschumer.
