Dropping out of the rat race isn’t the newest concept in the world (think Tom and Barbara Good in The Good Life), but it’s being given another spin in David Wain’s new comedy, Wanderlust. You can take a look at the first trailer below.
Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston star as George and Linda, a couple of high-flying New Yorkers who suddenly find themselves having to downshift when he’s fired. They try moving to Atlanta, where George’s obnoxious brother (Ken Marino) has offered him a job. But when that doesn’t work out, they go driving around the country, eventually ending up in error at the Elysium commune. And that’s when the trouble really starts.
It’s a regular trailer, so we’re honestly more interested to see what Wain and co can shove into any likely Red Band release, but there are a few chuckles here. And he has definitely recruited a good comedy cast, with the likes of Paul’s Joe Lo Truglio featured alongside Alan Alda, Malin Akerman, Justin Theroux and Todd Barry.
Given how much Wain and co-writer Marino (who returns to script duty once more here) were able to make of Role Models, we’re interested to see them tackling an original movie. The presence of Judd Apatow as producer likely won’t have hurt, either…
Wanderlust is out on March 2, 2012.
