The pic writing/directing duo is Jon Lucas and Scott Moore is boasting one of the more impressive female-focused comedy casts of recent memory with Leslie Mann (“This Is 40,” “Funny People,” “Knocked Up”), Michelle Buteau (“Babes,” “Survival of the Thickest”), Anna Faris (“Scary Movie,” “The House Bunny”), and Isla Fisher (“Wedding Crashers,” “Hot Rod”) set for the group of ladies heading to a fancy resort for a spa weekend where one of the more sketchy members of the friend group crashes the event leading to awkward and hilarious concequences.
An official logline for the raunchy comedy as provided by the film’s distributor, Black Bear:
In the spirit of “Bad Moms” and “The Hangover,” “Spa Weekend” is a hilarious and heartfelt comedy about four lifelong friends who realize that somewhere between careers, relationships, families, and everyday responsibilities, they have forgotten how to take care of themselves and each other. Burned out and overdue for a break, the women escape to a luxury spa retreat for what turns out to be an unforgettable weekend dedicated to fun, laughter, and a lot of really bad decisions.
Check out that new trailer for “Spa Weekend” below, as the movie heads to theaters on August 21.
