Cameron Diaz Accidentally Robs a Bank in the Fun Trailer for Netflix’s BAD DAY
Cameron Diaz is having one hell of a day in the trailer for Netflix’s upcoming comedy Bad Day, where a simple promise to attend her daughter’s soccer game turns into a nightmare involving a frozen bank account, a towed car, and an accidental bank robbery.
The film follows Diaz as a single mother of two who just wants to make it to her youngest daughter’s soccer game. She even seals the deal with a pinky promise, but keeping her word proves a lot harder than expected when practically everything that could go wrong does.
Between getting her father to his dialysis appointment, dealing with judgmental Pilates moms, and somehow finding herself accused of bank fraud, she's got more problems than any parent should have to handle in a single afternoon.
The trailer offers a look at the increasingly ridiculous situations she finds herself in as she desperately tries to make it to the game.
Described as a “big-heart mom-com,” the movie looks like a fun combination of Diaz’s action-comedy chops from Charlie’s Angels and Back in Action with the humor and heart she brought to There’s Something About Mary and The Holiday.
Diaz also has a solid supporting cast joining her for the chaos. Ed O’Neill plays her father, while Emma Pearson and Jessica Belkin portray her daughters. Danielle Brooks (Orange Is the New Black) and John Higgins play a pair of police officers, with Rhenzy Feliz (The Penguin) appearing as a friend.
The ensemble also includes Mark Duplass, Rob Corddry, Ayden Mayeri, Ben Schwartz, Retta, P.J. Byrne, Sherry Cola, Edi Patterson, and Beck Bennett.
Jake Szymanski, who directed the hilarious Amazon Prime Video series Jury Duty, is directing the film from a script by Laura Solon.
Bad Day premieres on Netflix on December 11, and it looks like an entertaining holiday-season comedy for anyone who's ever had one of those days when absolutely nothing goes right.
