Three Harried Mothers Laugh Off 'Perfect Parenting' in 'Bad Moms': Watch New Trailer and See 6 Character Posters
The cooking, the cleaning, the carpooling, the dealing with lazy husbands, whining children, and pesky in-laws — there’s no doubt that it’s often tough being a mom. Which is why this summer, a group of maternally minded women are fighting back against responsibility — and we have a new trailer to tease their raunchy rebellion (watch it above).

Written and directed by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, the duo responsible for penning the original The Hangover, Bad Moms stars Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Kathryn Hahn as mothers who have had enough of the chores, exhaustion, and expectations of parenthood. Determined to finally have some fun, these three harried ladies set out to embrace their most uninhibited, inappropriate impulses, and as is clear from this new trailer, that includes playing hooky and going to the movies, buying hot-red sports muscle cars, and turning PTA meetings into raging keggers — all while combatting a clique of bake sale-loving goody-two-shoes moms led by Christina Applegate, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Annie Mumolo.

Given its Hangover pedigree and girls-gone-wild premise, there’s little doubt Bad Moms will be a doggedly bawdy ode to having fun even after you’ve had kids — a notion furthered by its new attitude-heavy character posters (see all six below). Plus, following in the footsteps of other recent female-centric comedies (Trainwreck, Sisters), Bad Moms will also feature a supporting turn from a physically gigantic male pro athlete: J.J. Watt, defensive player of the year for the NFL’s Houston Texans.
Bad Moms starts wreaking havoc in theaters — and embarrassing kids in the process — on July 29.
