Melissa McCarthy will lead The Starling

It's comedy all the way today, spylings, to cheer you up ahead of the scorching summer weekend! Kevin Kline and Timothy Olyphant have joined comedy drama movie THE STARLING in which hilarious Melissa McCarthy and equally funny Chris O'Dowd play a married couple trying to rebuild their relationship after suffering a tragedy. While the husband heads off to deal with his grief in recovery, Lily Maynard tries to heal in the real world, one that becomes surreal when she grows a beautiful garden in their backyard, only to find herself repeatedly attacked by a starling that has built a nearby nest. She turns to a psychiatrist turned veterinarian (to be played by Kevin Kline) with baggage all his own, and who tries to help Lily with her bird problem and who ends up making a larger impact on her life.

Sextuplets hit Netflix in two weeks!

Netflix has, meanwhile, released the trailer for their hilarious comedy movie SEXTUPLETS in which Marlon Wayans plays all six main characters!  The story follows Alan, who grew up thinking he was an only child. Ahead of welcoming his first kid, he goes in search of his birth mother and learns the truth: he’s not an only child… not by a long shot. Wayans also plays Alan’s sister and every single one of his four brothers: Russell (who helps Alan learn of their sextuplet status), Ethan (who can smell that “Republican money”), Baby Pete (the name matches his stature), Dawn (an exotic dancer about to be released from prison), and Jaspar (seemingly, the intellectual of the siblings). The comedy is out August 16th!
