Vacation Friends: Release Date, Cast And More

(Welcome to ...And More, our no-frills, zero B.S. guide to when and where you can watch upcoming movies and shows, and everything else you could possibly stand to know.)

The mid-budget studio comedy has become an endangered species over the past few years, but against all odds, John Cena is one of the actors trying his best to keep the genre alive. His latest entry is Vacation Friends, a chaotic, antics-filled comedy (or maybe it's more of a horror movie?) about the consequences of letting loose on vacation. Here's everything we know about it so far.

There's a whole genre of movies that have been described as "from hell" films: there's the mistress from hell (Fatal Attraction), the neighbor from hell (Lakeview Terrace), the criminal from hell (Cape Fear). This film is essentially the "vacation acquaintances from hell": It follows an uptight couple who let loose on vacation at a Mexican resort, only for their temporary partners in debauchery to follow them back to the "real" world months later and ingratiate themselves into the couple's lives in uncomfortable ways. This movie will be 20th Century Studios' first film to get a global release on the Hulu and Disney+ streaming platforms.

Clay Tarver, who wrote the horror film Joy Ride with J.J. Abrams and later wrote, produced, and directed episodes of HBO's Silicon Valley, is making his feature directorial debut with this movie. He's also one of the credited screenwriters, along with Tom and Tim Mullen, who wrote a version of this movie many years ago, and the writing duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley (Game Night, Spider-Man: Homecoming).
