Anna Faris and Leslie Mann Share Swimsuit Video for Film

Actresses Anna Faris and Leslie Mann posted a promotional swimsuit reel on social media alongside co-stars Isla Fisher and Michelle Buteau for their film Spa Weekend. The lighthearted video came ahead of the comedic movie's theatrical release on Friday, August 21.

Faris, 49, flaunted her figure in a striped bikini top with matching drawstring bottoms. The actress, best known for starring as Cindy Campbell in the Scary Movie comedy franchise and in the CBS sitcom Mom, styled her blonde locks in a simple updo with bangs falling on her forehead.

Mann, 54, showcased her physique in a stylish black bikini with her hair swept up away from her face. Mann has established herself in Hollywood with comedic roles in feature films including Knocked Up, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and This Is 40.

Fisher, 50, joined the video wearing a colorful patterned swimsuit supported by thin straps. The Australian actress, known for starring in comedy hits such as Wedding Crashers and Confessions of a Shopaholic, styled her hair into two pigtails with loose wavy strands framing her face. She stepped between Faris and Mann, wrapping her legs around theirs as they held her up.

Buteau, 49, then appeared in a vibrant blue swimsuit as the group started swaying and dancing to the upbeat track Gentleman by South Korean musician Psy. Buteau is a stand-up comedian and actress who hosted the reality series The Circle and created the comedy series Survival of the Thickest. Psy achieved global prominence with his 2012 viral single Gangnam Style before releasing Gentleman in 2013.

The stars published the video on social media with a caption promoting the feature film. The caption read: "best friends, bathing suits & bad decisions! @spaweekendmovie serves up all the chaos you need!"

Social media users quickly commented on the video to offer their thoughts on the cast members' appearances. One Instagram user wrote: "Welp, heading to the gym, see y'all in 12 week[s]."

Another user wrote: "Wow making 40's look 20's again you go girls!" A third fan added: "They all look incredible! I'm younger than them and don't even look as good!"

Several commenters praised Mann specifically for her youthful appearance. One follower wrote that "there's no way that @lesliemann is over 30," while another commented: "Leslie! mannnn she don't age."

Another Instagram user expressed enthusiasm for the ensemble cast, commenting: "I'm obsessed with these comedy queens!!!!!"

Film plot and release details

Spa Weekend was written and directed by filmmakers Jon Lucas and Scott Moore. The filmmaking duo previously wrote the hit comedy film The Hangover and wrote and directed Bad Moms.

The movie follows a group of friends whose trip turns chaotic. According to IMDB, the plot focuses on friends "who go on a spa weekend that descends into chaos when their trainwreck friend joins, leading to hilarious consequences."

Faris discussed her hopes for the film during an interview with E! News. She expressed a desire for the movie to inspire women and friends to gather together.

"What I hope for this movie. I hope multiple groups of women or people are inspired to have a super fun lunch on a Saturday. Like a late lunch," Faris told E! News.

"Plan a spa weekend getaway that they can manage to do in like, five years and then go see our movie," Faris added.

Faris on sobriety and health

The promotional video comes shortly after Faris confirmed that she is now sober, roughly two months after sparking concern from fans following a red carpet appearance in Los Angeles, California, in June.

Faris spoke about her decision to stop drinking alcohol during an appearance on Chelsea Handler's Dear Chelsea podcast. Handler is a comedian and television presenter who previously hosted the late-night talk show Chelsea Lately.

On the podcast episode, Faris revealed that she is no longer drinking alcohol and has started using a hormone patch for her mood. She explained that the changes have made a "huge difference" in her daily life.

"It turns out there's a correlation between drinking and depression for me for sure," Faris said on the podcast.

Faris explained that she chose to take a "step back" from drinking in order to "not self-sabotage." She did not elaborate further on the exact date she stopped drinking.

Daily Mail contacted a representative for Faris for comment regarding her sobriety, but has not received a response.

Red carpet background and upcoming projects

Faris previously raised eyebrows while walking the red carpet to promote her comeback role in Scary Movie 6 back in June. A video went viral showing Faris appearing animated and expressive at the film's premiere in Los Angeles.

Her appearance and behavior divided fans at the time. Some social media users expressed concern, while others felt the actress was simply nervous from doing press interviews after an extended period away from public events.

Faris is currently experiencing a career resurgence following Scary Movie 6, which proved to be a major box office success. She has also secured a prominent role in the upcoming drama Primetime, starring alongside English actor Robert Pattinson.

Primetime is inspired by Chris Hansen and his work on To Catch a Predator, the investigative television news series that originally aired on Dateline NBC.

Personal life and relationships

Faris was previously married to actor Chris Pratt, known for his starring roles in Parks and Recreation and Guardians of the Galaxy. The couple eloped in 2009 and welcomed a son in 2012, before separating in 2017 and finalizing their divorce in 2018.

Pratt later married author Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019. Faris has been married to cinematographer Michael Barrett since 2021.
