If the Bridesmaids sequel never happens – and with Kristen Wiig busy and Melissa McCarthy reluctant to return without her, don’t count on it anytime soon – at least there’s Friends With Kids. Jennifer Westfeldt had the good fortune to populate her romantic comedy with a healthy heaping of the Bridesmaids cast (Wiig and Jon Hamm play one married couple, while Maya Rudolph and Chris O’Dowd are another) while adding Adam Scott, too. Not a bad idea! The movie puts Westfeldt and Scott at its center as two platonic friends who decide to have a baby together without any messy romantic underpinnings, and though their friends are skeptical of the arrangement, it seems to work … at least, until Scott falls for Megan Fox and Westfeldt snags Ed Burns, forcing the two co-parents to examine whether their unresolved feelings with each other might mean love. Looks cute!
