Rebel Wilson

Sounds like a real pain in the butt.

The claws come out.

The claws surprisingly don't come out.

OMG the cats are so weirdly small.

The Bellas head to Europe for one last farewell tour in the new trailer for ‘Pitch Perfect 3.’

Look, I’m no stranger to college acapella groups. When I was an undergraduate, a ragtag group of choir kids — myself most definitely included  —  organized the first men’s acapella group in the modern history of the university, and a quick Google search shows that the group is still alive and well to this day (no, I won’t tell you the name of the university or the name of the ensemble, so don’t bother asking). So am I pretty much as cool and influential as the Bellas in the Pitch Perfect movie series? Why, yes. I’d like to think so, yes.

Spend long enough interviewing actors for a living, you start to pick little things up. For instance, whenever a performer’s discussing their most recent production and utters any variant on the phrase “it really felt like the cast and crew was one big family,” that’s a major red flag that they’re full of crap. Costars are coworkers, and usually for about six months, and that’s on the longer side. But the ladies of Pitch Perfect 3 seem to be pretty earnest when they gush about the spirit of sisterhood and camaraderie that dominated the atmosphere on set. And for those as skeptical of myself, they proved it with video evidence.

The 1988 caper comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a cracking good time, pairing Steve Martin and Michael Caine as a pair of no-good con men fleecing rich old ladies on the shores of the French Riviera. The mismatched duo — Caine’s the image of suave refinement, Martin’s an inveterate ham — team for one big score, but a mysterious rival con artist known as “The Jackal” complicates matters. Also a good time: the Broadway musical based on the film, the 1964 Marlon Brando picture Bedtime Story that inspired Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and now we can add to that list Nasty Women.

Welcome to the latest Hollywood trend: the gender-swap remake. Following news of a gender-swapped remake of ‘Splash’ starring Channing Tatum as the one with the fish tail, Variety reports the next big remake on the docket is 1988's ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.’ Rebel Wilson will star in the MGM remake, which swaps the original two con men for two con women.

In comedy, a couple good jokes cover a multitude of sins. The Brothers Grimsby has both.
