AceShowbiz - Forget James Bond! Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon are here to save the world in "The Spy Who Dumped Me", which has released its first trailer. In the movie, the "That '70s Show" alum and the "Saturday Night Live" star play Audrey and her best friend Morgan, who are caught in espionage world.
Audrey just went through a bad breakup with her ex-boyfriend (Justin Theroux) ghosting her. He suddenly shows up at Audrey and Morgan's apartment and tells them the bad new, "Some bad people are after me; now they're after you."
With a team of deadly assassins on his trail, Audrey and Morgan are thrust unexpectedly into an international conspiracy. Surprising even themselves, the duo jump into action, on the run throughout Europe from assassins and a suspicious-but-charming British agent, as they hatch a plan to save the world.
The trailer shows Audrey being interrogated by a British agent played by Sam Heughan, and the duo eluding capture with lack of weapons. The two ladies can't help getting hysterical as they witness a murder and Audrey kills someone for the first time.
Also starring Gillian Anderson, Hasan Minhaj and Ivanna Sakhno, the comedy is directed by Susanna Fogel, who also wrote the script along with David Iserson.
Fogel made the movie that represents her own view, which is women aren't simply defined by their desire to get married. "I'm a single 30-something woman with no kids so I feel excited to make a movie about people who aren't angling for that," she tells Entertainment Weekly. "I think that's a lot of people I know, and even for women who have chosen that path, they don't only want to see characters getting married and having kids. They want to have an adventure with their friends, too."
She adds, "I want people watching the movie to think, Oh, that's like me and my friends. I want it to be a movie that people watch on dates or at bachelorette parties just like 'Bridesmaids'."
"The Spy Who Dumped Me" is set to open in theaters across the nation on August 3.
