if bridesmaids were to have a baby, it would be l!fe happens. no, seriously. originally titled bff & baby, l!fe happens follows three bffs, roommates kim (the always hilarious krysten ritter, who co-wrote the film), deena (a surprisingly funny kate bosworth) and laura (rachel bilson) as they navigate the single life in lalaland. oh, and kim has a baby. after a one-night stand, kim's world is turned upside down when she winds up preggers. flashing ahead to one year post-conception, the movie marks kim's transition from twenty-something to baby mama. when her baby daddy decides to skip town, kim struggles to strike a balance between friendship, love, work and mommy-hood. when she finally feels ready to re-enter the dating game, kim finds herself lying to potential partner nicolas (7th heaven's geoff stults), pawning off son max on deena. so what happens when everything becomes too much for kim and her lies start to get the best of her, and her roommates? well, you're just going to have to see for yourself. l!fe happens won't hit theaters until later this year, but it's a must see. mixing raunchy with rom-com, l!fe happens holds something for everyone. with a supporting cast including 3rd rock from the sun scene-stealer kristen johnston, american pie's jason biggs and weeds' justin kirk, you'll leave the theater in stitches and won't be able to help yourself from quoting lines like, "i saw a woman in a full burka go in for a bikini wax once. made me think of you" (fyi, that was said by self-made sexpert deena to still-a-virgin laura, making it hilarious). i'd even say director and co-writer kat coiro (in the video above, because there's no trailer ... yet) is the next diablo cody. maybe even funnier.
