If your hunger for raunchy humor (and Mexican locations) isn't satisfied by this weekend's "The Hangover, Part III," then you can rest easy because "We're the Millers," an upcoming comedy starring Jennifer Aniston, Jason Sudeikis, and Emma Roberts, is coming this August -- and it looks pretty funny.
The movie, directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber ("Dodgeball"), concerns a small time pot dealer (Sudeikis) who is enlisted by a wealthy client (Ed Helms) to retrieve a staggering amount of weed from Mexico. Feeling that a family is a better cover for cross-country drug smuggling, he cajoles a local stripper (Aniston), a homeless teen (Roberts), and a nerd who lives in his building (Will Poulter) to pose as a family. They're the Millers.
As the trailer suggests, things get out of control. Honestly it's amazing how much they get away with showing in a green-band trailer (there's also a red-band equivalent that's only slightly more risqué), which includes Aniston doing a pretty vigorous striptease. It looks like there will be some pretty notable cameos, too, like the always-hilarious Nick Offerman and Kathryn Hahn playing a couple of swingers.
Coming at the tail end of summer, we'll need all the laughs we can get after being pummeled into submission by all the big budget action and superhero movies we can handle.
"We're the Millers" opens on August 9th.
