James Bond and Mr. Darcy were just the beginning for Meryl Streep. “Turns out [she's] a bit of a slut.” In Nancy Meyers’ It’s Complicated, the Mamma Mia! star juggles Jack Donaghy and a mild-and-crazy guy. In the film’s trailer, Streep’s bitter divorcee becomes The Other Woman when she and her remarried ex (Alec Baldwin) renew their passions. Caught in between is Steve Martin’s sweet, square architect.
My first thought when I saw this was, “Wow, Meryl Streep’s going to star in two $100 million hits this year.” (I don’t mean to jinx Julie & Julia.) What a run for the actress who, in her “Hollywood prime,” flailed in attempts to prove her stardom with misses like The River Wild and Death Becomes Her. What she’s doing now is unprecedented for an actress of her…experience.
What did you think of the trailer, PopWatchers? Too much Something’s Gotta Give? Which supporting character most caught your eye: Lake Bell, John Krasinski, Rita Wilson, Lake Bell? And who would you rather have dinner with: Alec Baldwin or Steve Martin?
I love it! I prefer Meryl over a Starlet of the month anytime…A rom com with a stellar cast who CAN act! sign me up!
I intend to check this out — looks like fun.
This movie looks incredible. Meryl rules.
OMG, I can’t wait!
Um, I’m excited for the two seconds of HUNTER PARRISH that I saw!!
And Meryl, of course.
As much as the title makes me nauseous, I just don’t think any movie that involves Meryl, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, John Krasinski, Rita Wilson, and Hunter Parrish is something I could miss. But seriously…”It’s Complicated”? That makes it sound like their first choice was Denise Richards.
Meryl Streep AND Steve Martin?! sooo there! bad title though…
I smiled like a goofball through the entire trailer. I CAN’T WAIT to see this movie. Alec or Steve – tough choice. Get wooed by Alec, but marry Steve.
LOOKS AWESOME! CAN’T WAIT!
Yep, have to agree with everyone else. Terrific cast, and it looks really funny. Can’t wait to see if Meryl picks Jack Donaghy or Gavin Volure.
This is the first rom-com I’ve really wanted to see in a long time.
Looks like a great movie! Alec looks smokin’ hot! Will definitely be seeing this one, hopefully on opening day.
CANT WAIT!!!!!
THIS WOULD BE HUGE!!!
CANT GO WRONG WITH MERYL, SHE LOOKS GREAT BY THE WAY
I would rather have dinner with Jack Donaghy.
I have to agree with everyone’s post. This is looks good, fun and funny. And Meryl, Alec and Steve in a love triangle? Sign me up. Rom Com’s with good actors are always a safe bet. But I also think it’s a bad title. Oh well, won’t hold it against them.
