Leslye Headland wrote and directed the comedy about three friends who are asked to be bridesmaids at the wedding of a woman they used to ridicule in high school. Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher, Lizzy Caplan, James Marsden, Adam Scott and Kyle Bornheimer star.

Headland adapted the movie from her stage play.
