Whiskey Tango Foxtrot header

After Rock the Kasbah and Our Brand is Crisis didn’t quite work out in terms of Americans-in-a-foreign-land dramedies, Tina Fey will try her hand at it in next year’s Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Coming from Focus and Crazy, Stupid, Love. directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, the first trailer has now arrived.

Based on Kim Barker’s book The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days In Afghanistan And Pakistan, the story finds Fey as “a journalist who’s sent to Kabul on assignment and gets entrenched in a culture of adrenaline and parties.” The first trailer doesn’t look overtly comedic or pack that much of a dramatic punch, but hopefully the film itself will strike a strong balance. Also starring Margot Robbie, Martin Freeman, Alfred Molina and Billy Bob Thornton, check out the first trailer and poster below.
