TIFF 2011 Buyer’s Club: #9. Jennifer Westfeldt’s Friends With Kids
30-something rom com with a known ensemble (Kristen Wiig, Megan Fox, Jon Hamm, Chris O’Dowd and Maya Rudolph) might be considered a Bridesmaids reunion – as this features plenty of folks from the Paul Feig comedy – which is a terrific upside if you consider the box office draw of the May release title.
