Rebel Wilson’s ‘Bride Hard’ Sets Release Date, Reveals First Look
Rebel Wilson’s “Bride Hard,” a high-octane twist on a wedding romp, has set a date for wide release this summer.
Bob Yari’s Magenta Light Studios will take the comedy out nationwide on June 20, Variety can report. Directed by Simon West (“The Expedanbles 2,” “Con Air”), the film reunites Wilson with her “Pitch Perfect” costar Anna Camp. The starry supporting cast includes Anna Chlumsky (“Inventing Anna,” “Veep”), Oscar winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph (“The Holdovers”), Gigi Zumbado (“Heart Eyes”), Stephen Dorff (“True Detective,” “The Righteous Gemstones”) and Justin Hartley (“Tracker,” “This is Us”).
Wilson plays Sam, a secret agent whose toughest mission to date is pleasing her bride-to-be best friend (Camp) at a lavish destination wedding. When a team of mercenaries crashes the party and takes the guests hostage, Sam is thrown into a fight unlike any before — one where she can’t risk blowing her cover or ruining the big day. As she takes on the bad guys in a high-stakes battle disguised as a fairy-tale affair, she realizes the real threat might be closer than she thinks. She a first look photo above.
“Packed with comedy and high-energy thrills, ‘Bride Hard’ is sure to entertain everyone that has ever attended a wedding,” said Yari. “Seeing the unexpected duo of Simon West and Rebel Wilson team up makes for a uniquely fun collaboration that audiences will love experiencing on the big screen this summer.”
Balcony 9’s Joel David Moore (“Immaculate Room,” “Some Other Woman”), along with Colleen Camp (“Above Suspicion”), Cassian Elwes (“The Butler”), Max Osswald (“Immaculate Room”), and Jason Ross Jallet (“Big Gold Brick”) produced the project in association with WME Independent, Copper Island Films and Latigo Films.
