Scarlett Johansson has ‘Rough Night’ at bachelorette party in Red Band trailer


Hollywood has come to love crazy bachelor and bachelorette parties, and the onscreen shindigs just keep getting wilder. It’s no longer enough to wake up in a hotel room with a baby and a tiger or get booted off the plane on the way to Las Vegas. The upcoming comedy Rough Night ups the insanity with a night of hard partying that results in a dead stripper.

The movie’s Red Band trailer, released Wednesday, features Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Jillian Bell, Ilana Glazer, and Zoe Kravitz as five college friends celebrating a little too hard. When their raucous antics leave them with a body on their hands, they don’t know what to do. Not even YouTube CPR tutorials can save them or the poor stripper.

The death may have been an accident, but as the trailer shows, there’s still definite potential for trouble. Not only do the women have all sorts of drugs in their systems, they made the mistake of moving the body. That, we find out, is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.

And the mess just keeps getting messier, as the preview shows more bad decisions made by the friends, channeling a serious Very Bad Things vibe (the ’90s dark comedy with a very similar premise). We see the ladies transporting the body, chaotic driving, and more drinking. The cherry on top? Somehow, the women manage to get their hands on a gun.

Rough Night was formerly known as Rock That Body, and the script was written by Lucia Aniello and Paul W. Downs. Aniello directed the comedy, and the two serve as producers via Paulilu. Matt Tolmach and Dave Becky are also producers on the film.

Rough Night also stars Ty Burrell and Demi Moore. The comedy hits theaters June 16.

Everything we know about Wednesday season 2
Wednesday Addams with Thing on her shoulder from Wednesday.

It took just over 30 years for The Addams Family to recapture the public's imagination after the 1991 film and its 1993 sequel, Addams Family Values. Wednesday not only reinvigorated Charles Addams' signature creations, but it also became one of Netflix's most popular shows, surpassing even Stranger Things. That's why it was appropriate that The Addams Family's Christina Ricci had a part in Wednesday season 1 that allowed her to pass the torch to the current Wednesday, Jenna Ortega.

Wednesday season 2 is on the way to Netflix, and we're sharing everything we know about the upcoming season, including when it will return, what to expect, and more.
When will Wednesday season 2 be released?
2025 at the earliest. Netflix has confirmed the nearly three-year gap between seasons 1 and 2, which was pushed back because of the actors and writers strikes of 2023.

The best movies on Amazon Prime Video (May 2024)
Miles Teller and J. K. Simmons in Whiplash.

When the flow of new movies on Amazon Prime Video slows down, there's only one thing to do: Dive into the library! Prime Video added a lot of new films at the beginning of May, and two of our favorites were among them: Whiplash and Run Lola Run. Between those two movies, you've got a riveting drama and a thrilling movie that still dazzles 26 years after its release.

For romance lovers, The Idea of You is still on top of Prime Video's movie chart, and The Holdovers is doing pretty well for an emotional Christmas movie that's out of season by about six months.

The 50 best movies on Netflix right now (May 2024)
Scott Adkins in One More Shot.

This week, the most popular movies on Netflix are all about Shrek. Only the first and fourth Shrek films are on Netflix, but they're both in the top 5, and they've helped end the long run of The Super Mario Bros. Movie landing in the top 10. Even the hit rom-com Anyone but You has now been banished from the list.

But if you're not in the mood for Shrek or its final sequel, the action film One More Shot is the latest unheralded movie to rise on Netflix's list. The Peanut Butter Falcon is also a worthy addition, and it would have been enough to get Dakota Johnson out of movie jail if it had come out after Madame Web instead of five years before it.
