With a release only a week away, there sadly hasn’t been much buzz on the latest comedy from Role Models director David Wain. For Wanderlust, Wain re-teams with his Wet Hot American Summer star Paul Rudd and a cast including Jennifer Aniston, Malin Akerman, Justin Theroux and Alan Alda. We got a theatrical trailer last fall, but now a red band version has arrived from Break. I’m highly anticipating my viewing of the film in just a few days, so I’ll skip over this one. But for everyone else, check it out below.
Synopsis:
George and Linda are an overextended, stressed out Manhattan couple. After George is downsized out of his job, they find themselves with only one option: to move in with George’s awful brother in Atlanta. On the way there, George and Linda stumble upon Elysium, an idyllic community populated by colorful characters who embrace a different way of looking at things. Money? It can’t buy happiness. Careers? Who needs them? Clothes? Only if you want them. Is Elysium the fresh start George and Linda need? Or will the change of perspective cause more problems than it solves?
Wanderlust hits theaters February 24th, 2012.
