Friends With Kids Trailer: Jon Hamm, Maya Rudolph, and More Take Friends With Benefits to New Heights

If you loved seeing Jon Hamm and Kristen Wiig as friends with benefits in Bridesmaids, then you'll definitely want to see them together again as newlyweds in the trailer for Friends With Kids.

If you loved seeing Jon Hamm and Kristen Wiig as friends with benefits in Bridesmaids, then you'll definitely want to see them together again as newlyweds in the trailer for Friends With Kids. They're not the titular parents though; that would be Adam Scott and Jennifer Westfeldt (who also wrote and directed the film), as a pair of platonic friends who decide to have a baby together without being in a relationship (a "50 percent commitment," if you will.) Naturally, their circle of friends (which also includes Maya Rudolph and fellow Bridesmaids star Chris O'Dowd) don't exactly understand their progressive situation.

The preview didn't have me laughing out loud, but you'll never hear me complaining about seeing Adam Scott in a leading role, or revisiting so many of the amazing cast members from Bridesmaids. I'm even looking forward to seeing Megan Fox in something a little more toned-down, as a love interest for Adam Scott. The movie hits theaters in March, but get a peek at the trailer when you read more

Rashida, Elizabeth, and Zooey Toast Idiot Brother Paul Rudd at Their LA Premiere

Paul Rudd had some of Hollywood's funniest ladies on his arm last night at the LA premiere of Our Idiot Brother, which is out on Aug.

Paul Rudd had some of Hollywood's funniest ladies on his arm last night at the LA premiere of Our Idiot Brother, which is out on Aug. 26. He posed with costars Rashida Jones, Elizabeth Banks, in Prada, and Moschino-clad Zooey Deschanel on the red carpet, which also hosted comedic stars like Busy Philipps, who was fresh off a day of zip-lining on the Cougar Town set, and Jack McBrayer. Adam Scott is another member of the movie's funny cast, and his Parks and Recreation costars like Amy Poehler and Aubrey Plaza came out to support both him and Rashida. Elizabeth was excited to see her fellow leading ladies, tweeting before she left home that she was going to "chest bump [Zooey] and then compliment her on her dress." Zooey, meanwhile, wrote that she was "so excited" for the event to start. Following the screening, the gang and their guests moved on to the afterparty at the Mondrian hotel. Paul recently teamed up with producer Harvey Weinstein for a Funny or Die spoof about their marketing plan, and the two men were able to catch up inside the hotel.

Amy, Aziz, and Rashida Chat Parks and Recreation at the Paley Center

Amy Poehler dressed up in green last night to attend a panel for her show Parks and Recreation at LA's Paley Center For Media. Rashida is back in California after a quick press tour in NYC to chat about life at the fictional Pawnee Parks Department with her fellow EW cover stars like Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, and Aubrey Plaza, who just nabbed another comedy role opposite Andy Samberg and Bill Hader. The gang revealed that Rob Lowe isn't going anywhere just yet despite rumors of him replacing Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men, and Adam Scott, who joined the show at the same time, will likely stick around too. Amy had a few words to say about the burgeoning romance between Adam's character Ben and her Leslie. Amy commented, "They're very evenly matched. Leslie's like a single mother and Pawnee is her kid. And if Ben starts to like my kid. . . I'll have sex with him." Aziz, meanwhile, shared about his ideal guest star: Usher. He said, "I secretly want Usher to play my brother. . . [with his entrance having him] drop down from the ceiling."

Adam Scott vs. Rob Lowe: Who's Hotter?

Adam Scott was probably just being self-deprecating Monday night on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon when he said Rob was the "beautiful" one of Parks and Recreation's two new cast members and love interests.

Maybe it's an age thing — Rob is 46 and Adam's 37 — but I'd pick Adam before Rob or any day. What about you?

Adam Scott Says That Megan Fox Makes Him Feel Like He's "Covered in Diarrhea"

Of all the things I love about Parks and Recreation being back, Adam Scott's character Ben is near the top.

Of all the things I love about Parks and Recreation being back, Adam Scott's character Ben is near the top. He stopped by Late Night With Jimmy Fallon to talk about the show and the movie he's currently filming, Friends With Kids, in which Megan Fox plays his love interest. Scott is apparently so intimidated by her beauty that standing next to her makes him feel like he's "covered in diarrhea." Watch the whole clip and find out who else makes Scott feel that way!

Mila Kunis and Adam Scott to Give Bear Hugs

Mila Kunis and Mark Wahlberg didn't exactly make for box office magic when they teamed up for Max Payne, but the duo may be giving it another shot.

Mila Kunis and Mark Wahlberg didn't exactly make for box office magic when they teamed up for Max Payne, but the duo may be giving it another shot. Kunis is circling a role in Ted — that comedy I told you about where Wahlberg can't escape a grown teddy bear. Since Ted is Seth McFarlane's film and Kunis is a regular on Family Guy, it's not surprising to see her name attached to the project. There's also a bonus: Parks and Recreation's Adam Scott is eying the movie, too.
