Will Ferrell’s close friend of 30 years, Harper Steele, wrote him an email informing him that she’s coming out as a Trans woman. Shortly after, the two decided to embark on a cross-country road trip to process this new stage of their relationship.
Will and Harper’s friendship started on Saturday Night Live. She got hired as a Writer on the late-night show in 1995, the same week Will joined the Cast. Will & Harper is a very funny Documentary. Watching these two hilarious people on a road trip across America leads to many funny jokes and situations. Along their travels, they even check in with previous SNL cast members where more fun is to be had.
But the best part of Will & Harper is watching two close friends being completely open with each other. Will’s been open about knowing nothing about the trans community before Harper came out. This documentary captures the trust and honesty these two share. Harper is willing to answer any question Will has about her transition while Harper asks Will questions about his feelings regarding her transition. What Director Josh Greenbaum (Strays, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar), Will, and Harper have created is a documentary that will change minds.
Will & Harper is an entertaining, heartwarming, and informative portrait of friendship, transition, and America.

OMG. This looks so cute. Here’s the new Trailer for STRAYS starring Will Ferrell, Will Forte and Jamie Foxx.
Synopsis:
They’re bad to the bone. Watch the #StraysMovie NSFW trailer now. In Theaters June 9th. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but what if the man is a total dirtbag? In that case, it might be time for some sweet revenge, doggy style. When Reggie (Will Ferrell), a naïve, relentlessly optimistic Border Terrier, is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug (Will Forte; The Last Man on Earth, Nebraska), Reggie is certain that his beloved owner would never leave him on purpose. But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug (Oscar® winner Jamie Foxx), a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is. Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug and Bug’s pals—Maggie (Isla Fisher; Now You See Me, Wedding Crashers), a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner’s new puppy, and Hunter (Randall Park; Always Be My Maybe, Aquaman), an anxious Great Dane who’s stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal—together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home … and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most. (Hint: It’s not his foot). A subversion of the dog movies we know and love, Strays, directed by Josh Greenbaum (Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar) and written by Dan Perrault (Players, American Vandal), is a hilarious, R-rated, live-action comedy about the complications of love, the importance of great friendships, and the unexpected virtues of couch humping. Featuring a powerhouse comedic supporting cast—including Grammy winner Josh Gad (Beauty and the Beast), Harvey Guillén (Puss in Boots: The Last Wish), Emmy nominee Rob Riggle (The Hangover), Brett Gelman (Stranger Things), Jamie Demetriou (The Afterparty), and Emmy nominee Sofia Vergara (Modern Family)—Strays is produced by Picturestart founder and CEO Erik Feig (Luckiest Girl Alive, Cha Cha Real Smooth), by Louis Leterrier (director Fast X, The Clash of the Titans), by Dan Perrault (Players, American Vandal) and by Lord Miller partners Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part) and Lord Miller President of Film Aditya Sood (The Martian, Cocaine Bear). The film is executive produced by Jessica Switch, Nikki Baida and Julia Hammer.
STRAYS arrives in theatres AUGUST 18, 2023 via Universal Pictures Canada.
