The last time we saw a promo for Role Models maestros David Wain and Ken Marino’s comedy Wanderlust, it was the regular ol’ theatrical version back in November. Well, with the movie hitting today in the US (and March 2 over here), the red band trailer has arrived, bringing swearing, sexual references and Paul’s Joe Lo Truglio in the altogether. Provided there is no-one of a sensitive nature in the room, or that watching such things won’t get you fired from your job, go nuts, muddy funsters.
Wanderlust finds Manhattan couple George (Paul Rudd) and Linda (Jennifer Aniston) losing their life savings with a bad real estate investment at the same time George’s job implodes). Facing living (and working) alongside his boorish brother Rick (Marino), the pair instead opts to try a nearby commune which offers free love, free room and board and all the nature you can handle.
But while things initially seem blissful, they soon see their worldviews and relationship challenged by the various kooky characters that inhabit the land known as Elysium...
Back when the regular trailer arrived,we wondered what potty-mouthed delights might crop up in a red band version, and now you know. The cast is loaded with Wain and Marino’s regular cohorts, including Malin Akerman, Kerri Kenney-Silver and Justin Theroux, plus a sprinkling of new faces (Lauren Ambrose, Alan Alda and Jordan Peele). And from the looks of this, they’ve all brought the funny.
As mentioned, Wanderlust walks in on March 2.
