New Movie Trailer Featuring Jennifer Coolidge With A Machine Gun Has Fans Officially Obsessed

New Movie Trailer Featuring Jennifer Coolidge With A Machine Gun Has Fans Officially Obsessed
Prime Video

A trailer for a new action/comedy flick showing Jennifer Coolidge toting a machine gun has the internet clamoring for more.

The aptly named Amazon Prime film Shotgun Wedding stars Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel–whose characters Darcy and Tom prepare to get hitched at their destination wedding. Just as they get cold feet, the whole wedding party including guests are held hostage by a group of very unfriendly wedding crashers.


Lopez is known for starring in rom-coms typically centered around her being a bride like in Marry Me and Monster-In-Law, but this one takes a sharp turn halfway through the trailer.

Shotgun Wedding turns into an action film when mercenaries crash the couple's impending nuptials and threaten the lives of the opinionated families attending the wedding.

Coolidge, who plays Darcy's future mother-in-law, arms herself with a machine gun at one point in the trailer and looks prepared to do whatever it takes to protect the family, come hell or high water.

And that is the moment that has the internet completely obsessed.

You might feel the same after watching the trailer, below.

The trailer instantly became viral.

JLo–the movie's leading lady–had absolutely nothing to do with it.

People were down with JCo instead.

While we don't know the exact context of the situation here nor do we endorse any form of gun violence, it's hard not to root for Jennifer Coolidge going all Rambo while clad in a flowery gown and elegant sun hat to save the day.

Looks like it's going to be an explosive wedding.



Fans are already looking to help expand her already expansive resume.



Shotgun Wedding is directed by Jason Moore and written by Mark Hammer.

The main cast is supported by co-stars Lenny Kravitz, Cheech Marin, D'Arcy Carden, Selena Tan, Desmin Borges, Alex Mallari Jr., Callie Hernandez and Steve Coulter.

So, do we expect the movie to be a mega-blockbuster hit?

Nope.

Will it go down in history as the best film to come out of 2023?

Not even close.

Would we stream it anyway, just for Jennifer Coolidge?

Absolutely, duh.


Save the date for January 27, 2023 when Shotgun Wedding streams on Amazon Prime Video.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
