Long Island Mc Chow Lee dropped his Girls Cum First EP today. The project is a follow-up to 2024’s Sex Drive, a 19-track exhibition of Chow Lee’s melody and palpable horniness. The slizzy vibes continue on Girls Cum First, a three-track project that’s right in time for Valentine’s Day.

On “yes mami,” Chow tells a would-be boo, “I can’t take no chances / If I fumble you, then I’m gon’ give up on romances / If I drop the ball with you, I might as well be handless.

Another former “Big Bang Theory” cast member has signed on to the spinoff series currently in the works at Max.

Variety has confirmed that John Ross Bowie has signed a talent holding deal with studio Warner Bros. Television that would see him reprise the role of Barry Kripke, or “Kwipke” if you’re nasty. Bowie would appear alongside previously announced cast members Brian Posehn, Lauren Lapkus, and Kevin Sussman. Those three would also be reprising their roles from the original show.

The potential show was originally announced as being in development at Max back in April 2023. Exact plot details remain under wraps. It remains in development and has not been greenlit to series at this time. “Big Bang Theory” co-creator Chuck Lorre is executive producing the new project via Chuck Lorre Productions, with Lorre currently under an overall deal with Wbtv. Zak Penn and fellow co-creator Bill Prady also executive produce.

All at once a prince and a criminal, there are few roles James Marsden isn't perfect for. The charming everyman has dazzled audiences for over three decades and in over 80 film and television projects, ranging broadly in genre from experimental comedies and dark satires to indie science fiction stories and comic book blockbusters.

As of writing, Marsden's biggest contemporary projects are the films in the "Sonic the Hedgehog" franchise, in which he plays one of few human characters alongside Jim Carrey, opposite the voices of Ben Schwartz, Idris Elba, and, most recently, Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog. But before he was chasing gold rings across dimensions, Marsden was already an unmissable star of screens big and small, so we've ranked his 12 best TV shows and movies, taking into account their overall quality, how they showcased his talent, and their impact on popular culture at large.

Exclusive: The first UK commission for Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine has landed itself a second series without its star presenter.

Channel 4 has officially greenlit Renovation Rescue Season 2 with Vogue Williams and ex-Love Island contestant Luke Mabbott replacing Season 1 host Stacey Solomon, who led what was then titled Stacey Solomon’s Renovation Rescue earlier this year. The first ep of that series was watched by more than 1M viewers.

In Renovation Rescue, contestants apply to have their home renovated and presenters help them keep costs down with money-saving skills, design inspiration and DIY techniques anyone can try at home. The first season also spotlighted Solomon and husband Joe Swash’s own home renovation. Reports emerged earlier this year that Solomon, who presents a similar award-winning BBC show, Stacey Solomon’s Sort Your Life Out, would not be returning for Season 2. Yesterday, the BBC unveiled another new Solomon series,...

Chow Lee is confronted by a lover on “Practice!,” a standout track from the New York rapper’s 12th full-length project in half as many years. She claims that Lee “talks about pussy in all of [his] songs”—and she’s not lying. Because if you’ve heard of Chow, then you know that he can’t stop yapping about his seemingly inexhaustible sexual appetite. And that he does on the delightful and hilarious Sex Drive, which serves as a devotional text—a shrine really—to bushy vaginas, non-monogamy, and eating ass.

They call him “Mr. Vagina,” Chow says on “Swag It!,” “not ’cause I’m pussy but because I know that pussy like inside and outside.” If you can’t relate to his obsessive horndoggery, it doesn’t really matter, because any topic that inspires a wordsmith to bounce around so energetically, launching from one feverishly relayed description to the next,...

Exclusive: Guy Burnet (Oppenheimer), John Ross Bowie (Speechless), Adrian Rawlins (Mary & George) and Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson (Vikings: Valhalla) will round out the cast of Reykjavik, writer-director Michael Russell Gunn’s historical drama for Anyone But You producer Sk Global. Additionally, 2521 Entertainment has been set to produce and finance the film in partnership with Sk Global.

Others in the cast, as previously announced, include Jeff Daniels, Jared Harris, J.K. Simmons, Hope Davis, Branka Katic and Aya Cash.

Entering production in Iceland in early October, with extensive filming at Höfði House, the actual site of the 1986 Reykjavik summit, Reykjavik explains why the event marked one of the most significant diplomatic achievements of modern times. The film takes place at the most dangerous point of the Cold War, watching as political enemies Ronald Reagan (Daniels) and Mikhail Gorbachev (Harris) meet in Iceland over one long, tense weekend to decide if there will...

Seven Seas Entertainment broke up the middle of the week with a handful of new announcements, including plans to publish Dan Ichikawa's My New Boss is Goofy manga—which inspired the anime of the same name —in April 2025. There are also two more audiobooks on the way as part of the publisher's Siren imprint, so let's see what's in store. Fairy Cat by Hisa Takano May 2025 Synopsis: A minuscule cat appears one rainy day, perched on Kanade’s chair. But the moment he spots the tiny ball of fluff, it vanishes! Kanade knows fairy cats are a rare sight to behold, hiding out of reach in nooks and crannies—but now that he’s seen one, he is determined to win its affection. Can Kanade coax the fairy cat out and befriend it? Sex Drive by Monaka Toyama and Fumi Takamura July 2025 Synopsis: Jun’s life is turned upside down...

Despite being best known for his comical side roles in films like Hot Tub Time Machine and Sex Drive, Clark Duke went in a much different direction with his directorial debut Arkansas, a neo-noir dark comedy released in early 2020. If Dukes acting credits were mostly within the gross out comedy genre, then Arkansas felt like a deliberate throwback to the style of quirky crime comedies helmed by Joel and Ethan Coen that were popular in the 1990s. Duke certainly succeeded in revitalizing an antiquated genre that had mostly been brought to life on dramatic television within the past decade. The movie features Dukes finest acting role to date, but Arkansas is worth watching solely for the unusually sinister turn from Vince Vaughn.

Exclusive: Actor-turned filmmaker Clark Duke (Arkansas) has wrapped production on Stranglehold, a new comedic thriller in the vein of the Coen Brothers’s oeuvre for Yale Productions. Cast for the pic includes Ashley Benson (Wilderness), Emmy nominee Jake Lacy (Apples Never Fall), Justin Long (Barbarian) and Golden Globe winner Ron Perlman (The Instigators).

Written by Chandler Duke, Billington Garrett and Clark Duke, the film is billed as a Southern-fried siege, with shades of Dog Day Afternoon and Die Hard, which centers on Bailey (Benson), an exotic dancer with big dreams. She and her Army vet husband Tim (Lacy) are fed up with their lives of barely getting by in small-town Arkansas, so they decide to rob the strip club that employs her.

Producers include Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman and Michael Day of Yale Productions, along with Clark Duke. Exec producers are Rabbits Black’s Lawrence Minicone, Ronnie Exley, Jeremy Ross,...

With its list of new releases for May 2023, Hulu is relying on an acclaimed original and a whole lotta FX.

The acclaimed original in question in The Great season 3. Premiering on May 12, this historical black comedy with continue the story of Catherine the Great (Elle Fanning) and her pal Peter III (Nicholas Hoult). The other Hulu original series of note this month is The Clearing on May 24. Based on the best-selling crime novel In the Clearing this story will follow a story inspired by the real life events behind Australian cult “The Family.”

For its other TV options in May, Hulu is turning to its cable partner FX. Class of ’09, an FBI thriller starring Kate Mara and Brian Tyree Henry, premieres on May 10. That will be followed by The Secrets of Hillsong, a docuseries investigating the controversial church on May 20.

Hulu’s list of original movies this month is...

“The Great” returns to Hulu for Season 3 on May 12. Elle Fanning portrays Catherine the Great, desperate to turn Russia into an enlightened nation, while Nicholas Hoult plays Peter III, her libertine husband. Despite marital problems, including Catherine’s attempt to murder him, Peter now claims to be in love with his wife. The show, loosely based on history, takes a snarky, sexy, and irreverent ride through 18th-century Russia. Catherine was the longest-running female ruler in the nation’s history.

Check out “The Great” Season 3 trailer:

FX’s suspense thriller “Class of ’09” streams May 10 on Hulu. A class of FBI agents at three points in time face changes in the U.S. criminal justice system, which has been altered by AI. The series takes a deep dive into the nature of justice and the choices we make.

Who would have guessed that The Joe Schmo Show, a series that aired three seasons on the since-renamed Spike network scattered between 2003 and 2013, would be TV’s most influential format of 2022 and 2023? Other than fans of The Joe Schmo Show, I mean.

That series, in which an ordinary civilian — a “Joe Schmo,” if you will — is pranked/hoaxed/conned/scammed into believing he was part of a reality show when he was actually surrounded by a crew of actors, has its potent DNA in Nathan Fielder’s The Rehearsal, one of my favorite shows of last year, and Peacock’s Paul T. Goldman, a provocatively noxious offering from earlier this winter. Now it’s back again in Freevee’s Jury Duty.

Jury Duty, which spreads its prank across eight episodes, ultimately has two things going for it: The first, is that it’s condescending but not contemptuous as relates to its Joe Schmo hero,...

High school is a complicated time in a person's life. While everyone goes through physical, mental, and social changes as they begin to transition into adulthood, the high school experience isn't the same for everybody. Some people feel like outcasts and revel in the community built on the outskirts of "normalcy." Meanwhile, others consider it to be the greatest years of their lives and have no problem participating in the ongoing popularity contest or reaping the benefits that come with it.

However, do you think that the latter group would still consider that time in their lives the glory days if they had to spend eternity there? The new young adult drama from Awesomeness Live-Action Studios titled "School Spirits" explores...

For those unfamiliar with the series, The Filmmakers Podcast is a podcast about how to make films from micro budget indie films to bigger budget studio films and everything in-between.

The Filmmaker’s Podcast #314: Spirited: Making a Will Ferrell, Ryan Reynolds & Octavia Spencer...

Spirited is a Christmas musical comedy streaming on Apple TV+, starring Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds. It is co-written and directed by Sean Anders.

The tables are turned, and this Christmas it is the Ghost of Christmas Present who must do some reevaluating.

Premise

This year’s target of the Ghost of Christmas Present is the ruthless businessman, Clint Briggs. As Present describes him, “he’s like the prefect combination of Mussolini and Seacrest.” His dark soul must be reformed by a visit from three spirits. Things will not follow the traditional process, when Christmas Present has to contend with Briggs who will shrewdly subject the Ghost to his own journey through his past, present and future.

Spirited (2022) Movie Review

A movie that has Will Ferrell written all over it: it is edgy but within limits. It goes ever so slightly beyond the canons of Christmas movies, managing to bring us something outside the norm.

(From left) Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell in Spirited Photo: Apple+ Song has the ability to take the simplest thought—or even a trite expression—and turn it into a moment of joyful uplift. It offers a direct line to more readily accepted vulnerability, and rumination about self-betterment.This fact...

If Scare Zone seems a bit familiar that’s not surprising. The debut film by Jon Binkowski has been around since 2009, playing festivals and streaming services such as Hulu as well as getting a DVD release. Also, its plot about real deaths in a Halloween Haunted House has been used in films many films such as Hell Fest, The Tombs and Haunt.

In what can be called movie geek comfort food, Battle: Los Angeles and Krull have become cult favorites over the years. Why? You can watch either movie while doing other things keeping an extra eye on the screen, have devout fans who can recite the dialogue verbatim and will defend both movies to the end. Guilty pleasures, yes, cult status, definitely.

Even HBO Max has it listed as such.

The 2011 sci-fi and 1982 fantasy films have come to HBO Max and are available to stream now.

“Marines don’t quit.”

Battle: Los Angeles, starring Aaron Eckhart, and from director Jonathan Liebesman (Wrath Of The Titans), is the exciting story of a squad of U.S. Marines who become the last line of defense against a global invasion. It gets the military right than most war movies. Numerous Marine units assisted in filming and the movie contains some awesome scenes with Black Hawks,...

The return of fan-favorite shows, auteurs tackling new original series, new documentaries and more headline what’s new on HBO Max in April 2022.

Top of the list is the HBO Max original series “The Flight Attendant,” which returns for its second season on April 21. Then there’s the long-awaited return of Bill Hader’s “Barry” on April 24 on HBO and HBO Max, as well as Season 3 of “The Black Lady Sketch Show” on April 8.

In terms of new originals, “The Wire” and “The Deuce” creator David Simon is back with the new series “We Own This City” on April 25, which chronicles the rise and fall of the Baltimore Police Department’s Gun Trace Task Force. Michael Mann executive produces and directs the first episode of the neo-noir “Tokyo Vice,” which premieres on April 7. And Ben Foster stars as Holocaust survivor Harry Haft in the HBO Original Film “The Survivor,” which...

April is about to be a good month for returning HBO and HBO Max properties.

HBO Max’s list of releases for April 2022 features three hotly anticipated seasons of television. The Flight Attendant, which helped launch HBO Max as a viable spot for good dramedy in 2020, premieres its second season on April 21. That will be followed by another go-around for the sci-fi comedy Made for Love on April 28. Of course, the big ticket item this month is something that HBO Max inherited from its cable cousin. Barry season 3 will continue the story of hitman-turned-actor Barry Berkman (Bill Hader) on April 24.

The TV offerings run much deeper than just returning shows this month. April 7 sees the arrival of Tokyo Vice, a sprawling crime drama with some episodes directed by Michael Mann. The series stars Ansel Elgort as an American journalist embedding himself in Tokyo’s criminal underground in the late ’90s.

Michael Cudlitz and Jake Abel and have signed on to star alongside Zhang Hanyu and Vivienne Tien (Be Yourself) in Unspoken, a dramatic feature from writer-director Daming Chen that is now in production.

Unspoken tells the story of Xu (Zhang), an estranged father separated from his deaf daughter and her new life at an American university, whose murder reunites them in a way neither could have foreseen. The tragedy pierces Xu with grief and guilt that he couldn’t be present to protect his child. An ex-cop himself, he becomes convinced the local authorities are pursuing the wrong suspect – and that racism is compromising the investigation.

With a young Chinese translator in tow (Tien), who is navigating her own challenging path as a young immigrant, Xu sets out to learn what really happened to his daughter.

Exclusive: SAG Award winner Iqbal Theba has signed on to star in Land of Gold, a drama from writer-director Nardeep Khurmi, which is currently in production in Oklahoma.

Pic centers on Kiren, a first-generation Punjabi trucker and anxious father-to-be, who stumbles across a 10-year-old undocumented Mexican-American named Elena during a cross-country trip. As Kiren helps her to find her way home, the pair connect over a shared history and evolving expectations of what family truly is.

Theba will play Kiren’s father, Gurinder, who is older than his years, losing his memory and dreaming of better days.

Land of Gold was the winner of the $1 million dollar Grand Prize at the 2021 Tribeca/AT&T Untold Stories pitch competition, and will premiere at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival, subsequently being distributed by Warner Bros. and HBO Max.

Keertana Sastry is producing the film with Pallavi Sastry and Simon Taufique.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Katrina Bowden about her upcoming horror film, Great White, which releases in theaters, VOD, and Digital on Friday, July 16, 2021. Katrina is best known for playing Cerie on NBC's 30 Rock (2006-2013) and has also appeared in such films as Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, Sex Drive, Piranha 3Dd, American Reunion, and Scary Movie 5. She can currently be seen on the CBS daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful playing Flo Fulton. Her new role in Great…...

Over a decade ago, writer Ayn Carrillo-Gailey embarked on a quest to prove an ex-boyfriend wrong. She rolled out a list of lusty to-dos to show that she was not, as he had pronounced her to be, “pornphobic.” The result was the amusing (and enlightening) memoir “Pornology,” which has now spawned its own sanitized, if sweet rom-com movie adaptation. It’s a cute idea for a movie, the kind that follows a charming lead as they stumble their way into physical pleasure and other forms of personal enlightenment.

Filmmaking brothers Chris and Nick Riedell might not be breaking any new ground with their “A Nice Girl Like You,” but the duo at least had the foresight to cast Lucy Hale as Carrillo-Gailey’s movie stand-in, a straight-laced classical violinist who isn’t so much afraid of sex as she is unsure of how to make it work for her.

Netflix is no stranger to underrated and overlooked comedies. The addition of films like Sex Drive, Wine Country and Sleeping With Other People prove that there’s plenty for comedy fans to watch if they’re willing to dig for lesser-known but utterly hilarious content. One such underrated flick has been making its way up the service’s Top 10 list over the past 24 hours, and it’s well worth checking out if you’re a Seth Rogen fan.

After dropping on June 1st, the 2009 comedy Observe and Report took very little time to garner plenty of attention. It currently sits at #9 on the Top 10 Movies list, and while this occasionally mean-spirited film might be an acquired taste, it’s a hell of a good time if you can deal with its darker elements.

For those unfamiliar with it, the laugh-filled experience stars Rogen as a mall cop named Ronnie who...

Amazon Prime’s new releases in June 2020 is fairly lacking in original material. That’s to be expected for a streaming service that focuses on quality over quantity to begin with now going through a pandemic content crunch.

Standup special Gina Brillon: The Floor Is Lava, Joseph Gordon-Levitt film 7500, and Pete the Cat season 2 are the only originals arriving this month. And that’s fine as Amazon is about to be home to one of 2019’s most fun films. That’s right – Knives Out makes its debut on June 12. It might be awhile before we get to see the next Benoit Blanc mystery so hopefully this will tide us over.

June 1 also sees the arrival of Dirty Dancing, Kingpin, and the tragically underrated Sex Drive. It’s not the most impressive month Amazon has ever had, but at least you still get free shipping.

Editor’s note: Den of...

Though much of the entertainment industry is still in lockdown due to the Coronavirus and the quarantines imposed to help stop its spread, streaming services are thriving like never before. Netflix and Amazon Prime have both been seeing record viewing figures, while Disney Plus subscriptions are through the roof. Not to mention HBO Max just launched this week as well and is reportedly off to a strong start.

With all eyes fixed on the small screen these days, anything new and exciting is eagerly anticipated and after hearing all about what Netflix has coming next month, Amazon Prime has just announced their full line-up, and it’s packed with some pretty great movies and TV shows spanning multiple genres.

There are a lot of popular streaming platforms to choose from, but Hulu has always stood alongside Netflix as one of the two essentials for households looking for diversity in content. In the past, they’ve been known for focusing more heavily on newer television content, while Netflix has always offered a larger selection of sought-after films. But now, it looks like Hulu’s June lineup is only going to continue the service’s recent trend of providing high quality movies to bring itself in line with their competitor.

First up, you can get wholesome with Mr. Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, which tells the story of an investigative journalist who learns some hard life lessons from one of television’s most beloved personalities. You can then supplement that wholesomeness with My Girl and My Girl 2 for some wonderful 90s nostalgia.

Speaking of nostalgia, you won...

June 2020 is set to be a big month for the whole streaming Disney family. Not only will ESPN+ have the entirety of The Last Dance on its servers for late-adopting sports fans to catch up with, but Disney+ will be premiering its long-awaited Artemis Fowl film. Over on its biggest streaming service in Hulu, however, Disney is taking things a bit more slowly.

This month finds only three major original releases for Hulu. Animated medieval comedy Crossing Swords premieres on June 12, then Ya love story Love Victor and cooking show Taste the Nation with Padma Lakshmi both arrive on June 19. All in all, that’s not a bad haul for originals for the typically slow summer months.

June 1 sees a pretty impressive crop of movies coming to Hulu’s library as well. October Sky, The X-Files (1998), and Casino will all be ready to stream at the beginning of the month.

Susie Abromeit has been cast in Warner Bros’ upcoming biopic “King Richard,” and is expected to play a prominent journalist.

The film stars Will Smith as Richard Williams, the infamous father of tennis greats Venus and Serena Williams. The film will tell the story of how Williams overcame adversity and trained his two daughters on the streets of Compton, Calif. to challenge the status quo and become two of the greatest tennis players in the history of the game.

Abromeit, who has had roles on TV shows such as “Jessica Jones” and “Chicago Med,” will play a journalist who follows the careers of Venus and Serena Williams. In 1998 a 17-year-old Venus and a 16-year-old Serena met on the court in Australia to face-off against one another for the first time in a Grand Slam tournament.

With time ticking away and a mysterious figure haunting her, she must find a way to save her life before time runs out.

Starring Elizabeth Lail, Jordan Calloway (Riverdale), Talitha Bateman (Annabelle: Creation), Anne Winters (13 Reasons Why), Pj Byrne (Big Little Lies) and Peter Facinelli, Countdown is set for a cinema release on October 25th 2019.

Kim Possible directors find new ways to torture pre-teens in the Emile Hirsch-starring Freaks.

The upcoming film Freaks twists perspectives and ties genres. Shown through the eyes of a 7-year-old girl, the cameras are set low. Co-directed by Kim Possible directors Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky, the film mixes science fiction, horror and suspense to tell the a very personal story of a sad and dysfunctional family, inspired by the filmmakers' own lives.

Freaks stars Emile Hirsch as Adam, a distraught single dad who locks his 7-year-old daughter in their house to keep her safe. Chloe is played by Lexy Kolker (Shooter), and she listens to her father's warnings about the dangers outside. That is until the ice cream truck shows up.

The truck is driven by Mr.

We’ve got a new trailer to share with you for an upcoming sci-fi thriller called Freaks. The film is coming to Comic-Con next week, and to help build the hype the studio decided to show off some more footage from the film that sheds some additional light on the story.

The movie was directed by Kim Possible directors Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky, and it has a great cast that includes Emile Hirsch, Lexy Kolker (Shooter), Bruce Dern, Amanda Crew, and Grace Park.

I think this looks like it could be a solid flick. I like what I’ve seen in the trailers! Here’s the synopsis:

Kept locked inside the house by her father, 7-year-old Chloe lives in fear and fascination of the outside world, where Abnormals create a constant threat – or so she believes. When a mysterious stranger offers her a glimpse of what’s really happening outside,...

Hulu’s list of comings and goings for the month of April is out, and the roster for new content on the streaming service includes two Hulu Originals — the first season premiere of “Ramy,” and the seventh episode of “Into The Dark: I’m Just F*cking With You,” with other highlights including Season 3 of Freeform’s “The Bold Type” and John Krasinski’s “A Quiet Place.”

Early press screenings of Sean Anders’ “Instant Family” came with an unexpected bit of pre-show entertainment: an introduction from filmmaker Sean Anders, during which the director of such decidedly non-family-friendly features like “Sex Drive” and “That’s My Boy” explained the real-life experiences that informed his newest film. Regular moviegoers won’t see that video when they go to see “Instant Family” in theaters, but they will be treated to the kind of title card that has never previously adorned an Anders joint: “inspired by a true story.”

Nearly eight years ago, Anders and his wife Beth decided it was time to become parents, but worried that they might be starting too late, they turned to the foster system. Eventually, the pair rounded out their family with a trio of siblings. Their real-life experience frames up the film’s plotline, which follows Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie (Rose Byrne) as...

"Keep in mind folks - it is not going to be easy..." Paramount Pictures UK has released a new international trailer for the upcoming holiday comedy Instant Family, the latest movie by Sean Anders. Instant Family is inspired by the real events from the life of writer/director Sean Anders, telling the story of a couple that find themselves in over their heads when they adopt three children. Starring Mark Wahlberg, Rose Byrne, Octavia Spencer, Tig Notaro, Isabela Moner, plus Margo Martindale. This really looks so bad, so bad, and so cliche, and painfully unfunny. I would much rather see a movie where they adopt kittens, not kids, than this crap. But that's me. Here's the new international trailer (+ poster) for Sean Anders' Instant Family, direct from YouTube: When Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie (Rose Byrne) decide to start a family, they stumble into the world of foster ...

Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for a new comedy called Instant Family. The movie comes from director Sean Anders and it stars Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne. They play a couple who want to start a family and they find themselves in over their heads when they bring in three foster children. The movie is actually based on the real-life events from the life of the director of the film. 

When Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie (Rose Byrne) decide to start a family, they stumble into the world of foster care adoption. They hope to take in one small child but when they meet three siblings, including a rebellious fifteen year old girl (Isabela Moner), they find themselves speeding from zero to three kids overnight. Now, Pete and Ellie must hilariously try to learn the ropes of instant parenthood in the hopes of becoming a family.

The movie also stars Octavia Spencer,...

The first trailer for Instant Family introduces a heartwarming and hilarious story based on director Sean Anders' real life. Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne portray a married couple who are looking to expand their family, just like Anders and his wife did. Wahlberg's Pete character and Byrne's Ellie turn to foster care, looking to adopt one child. However, they end up three siblings. The trailer features some of the ups and downs of starting an instant family, especially when one of the kids is a teenager.

Sean Anders is best known for comedies like Sex Drive, That's My Boy, and Daddy's Home, but Instant Family sees the director adding a dash of drama for this story. Along with the trailer for the film, Anders also released a behind-the-scenes featurette that shows his real-life family and explains how his own personal experience with adoption influenced the project. Right away, Anders...

Surprise - it's a family! "You're just another white lady who wants to adopt charity orphans to make you feel good about yourself!" Paramount Pictures has debuted an official trailer for a comedy titled Instant Family, the latest movie by Sean Anders. Instant Family is inspired by the real events from the life of writer/director Sean Anders, telling the story of a couple that find themselves in over their heads when they adopt three children. Starring Mark Wahlberg, Rose Byrne, Octavia Spencer, Tig Notaro, Isabela Moner, plus Margo Martindale. This looks like an amusing comedy, but the humor doesn't seem that smart to me. Watch the trailer below. Here's the first official trailer for Sean Anders' Instant Family, direct from Paramount's YouTube: When Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie (Rose Byrne) decide to start a family, they stumble into the world of foster care adoption. They hope to take...

To most movie-goers, filmmaker Sean Anders’ name is likely synonymous with broad comedies like “Sex Drive,” “That’s My Boy,” and “Daddy’s Home,” but the writer and director has taken a teensy turn into more dramatic territory with his latest film, “Instant Family.” It’s understandable that Anders might hedge a bit more to the drama for the Mark Wahlberg- and Rose Bryne-starring film, because while the family comedy looks to have some laughs in store, it all comes from a very personal place.

The film follows Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie (Rose Byrne) after they decide to start a family, turning to foster care adoption in the process. Initially looking to adopt just one tyke, they end up meeting three siblings, including Isabela Moner as a rebellious teen. That’s an instant family.

Anders based the film on he and his wife’s own experience with foster care adoption,...
