At least at first. Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo, the writers behind Bridesmaids, wrote Barb &#038; Star together as an original feature and also star as the two titular characters.<\/p>\n<p>This looks to be a pretty colorful comedy with Wiig and Mumolo going big with their characterizations, and I\u2019m kind of here for it. The story finds the titular lifelong friends taking the adventure of a lifetime when they leave their small Midwestern town for the first time ever to go on a vacation. \u201cRomance, friendship, and a villain\u2019s evil plot\u201d ensue.<\/p>\n<p>This feels to me like Kristen Wiig\u2019s MacGruber or Popstar \u2013 an outrageous comedy where she\u2019s really leaning into the character for comedic effect. That may not be to everyone\u2019s liking given how relatively grounded Bridesmaids was, but as for me, I\u2019m incredibly down to see a goofy comedy that goes for it starring one of the funniest people on the planet.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the new Barb &#038; Star Go to Vista Del Mar trailer below. The film will be released everywhere you can rent movies on February 12th. Directed by Josh Greenbaum, the movie also stars Jamie Dornan, Damon Wayans Jr., Wendi McLeandon-Covey, Rose Abdoo, Vanessa Bayer, Kwame Patterson, and Phyllis Smith.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px;\" align=\"center\"><strong>Related Videos<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_50591\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3EBwBGTlGFQ?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BarbAndStar?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by BarbAndStar<\/a> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dan Levy will be starring in his first Super Bowl commercial!
