Girl Most Likely tells the story of a woman (Kristen Wiig) who, after having a nervous breakdown, must move back in with her mother (Annette Bening) in New Jersey only to find her childhood bedroom has been rented out to a handsome 20-something (Darren Criss). From the trailer, it looks like the movie will mostly be about a mom and daughter repairing their broken relationship, but let’s get down to brass tacks — Wiig and Criss totally do it.
This will be Wiig’s first starring role since the box office smash Bridesmaids and, despite a solid cast (does anyone do endearing/creepy/stupid quite like Matt Dillon?), the film received mixed reviews when it premiered under the name Imogene at TIFF. Since then, it’s gone under the knife and gotten a fresh edit along with a new name. That might not be enough to get you to the movies, but consider this: Darren Criss’ character is in a Backstreet Boys cover band. Do what you will with that information.
