Motherhood Comedy ‘Let’s Have Kids’ Trailer – Karen Gillan & Zoë Chao​

“There’s a planet for people with kids, and a planet for people without kids!” Republic Pictures unveiled an official trailer for the comedy film titled Let’s Have Kids, and indie story of two best friends who decide to become mothers right around the same time. This is out soon on VOD to watch this October, a sign there’s nothing too exciting here, but it will be a fun one for new parents to enjoy. Karen Gillan and Zoë Chao star together. Lifelong best friends Emma & Phoebe make a pact to get pregnant at the same time. But when only one conceives, their plans to enter motherhood together begin to unravel, threatening to pull their lives in different directions and tear them apart. The full cast includes Sam Richardson, Max Greenfield, KJ Apa, Ed Begley Jr., Mary Steenburgen, Luke Macfarlane, Lilly Singh, Amanda Crew. This looks like it’s filled with plenty of kooky, heartfelt humor about becoming parents, and also friends and marriages.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Adam Sztykiel’s film Let’s Have Kids, direct from YouTube:
