My final interview for Cinemacon 2016 was with a trio of hilarious people: Anna Kendrick, Zac Efron, and Adam DeVine who were on hand to talk about their upcoming raunchy R-rated comedy MIKE AND DAVE NEED WEDDING DATES. Based on the extended trailer and scene shown at Cinemacon, the flick looks like a really fun flick, especially for those of us who like the lowbrow stuff. Kendrick, DeVine, and Efron have all dabbled in this type of comedy before and they're a perfect match to do it again for MIKE AND DAVE.

We talked about what makes them say yes to a comedy like this, what the chemistry was like working with each other on set, and more. Enjoy!
