About Bridesmaids

Bridesmaids is a 2011 American comedy film directed by Paul Feig from a screenplay by Annie Mumolo and Kristen Wiig. It stars Wiig as a woman who experiences a series of misfortunes after being asked to serve as maid of honor for her best friend, played by Maya Rudolph. The cast also features Rose Byrne, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Ellie Kemper, Melissa McCarthy, and Chris O'Dowd. Actresses Mumolo and Wiig wrote the screenplay after the latter was cast in Judd Apatow's comedy Knocked Up (2007). Bridesmaids premiered in Westwood, Los Angeles on April 28, 2011, and was theatrically released in the United States on May 13, 2011, by Universal Pictures. It grossed $306.5 million worldwide on a $32.5 million budget, and surpassed Knocked Up to become the top-grossing Apatow Productions film to date. At the 84th Academy Awards, McCarthy was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, and Wiig and Mumolo for Best Original Screenplay. Bridesmaids has served as a touchstone for discussion about women in comedy. Several publications have ranked it among the best comedy films of the 21st century.
