Sony Screen Gems has dropped the teaser trailer for the comedy The Wedding Ringer [WEDRN]. Josh Gad [JGAD] stars as a friendless groom-to-be in need of a best man and seven groomsmen. Kevin Hart [KHART] plays the proprietor of Best Man Inc. who just happens to provide such a service, so that we can have a premise for a movie.
Jimmy provides best man services for socially challenged guys, who - for whatever reason - have no one close enough to agree to stand by them on the day of their wedding. Doug, a groom-to-be, has found himself in just such a situation, but, to make matters worse, he fabricates the names of not only a best man but nine groomsmen as well. When all else fails, Doug seeks out Jimmy's services to carry out a charade designed to make Doug look his best, but threatens to destroy everything if it fails.
The Wedding Ringer won't walk into theaters until January 16th, 2015.
