WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT Trailer

Tina Fey will inevitably put butts in the seats, but surprisingly this is her first solo vehicle as an actress. She’s previously been paired with the likes of Amy Poehler, Steve Carell, and Paul Rudd, making Paramount Pictures’ decision to promote her as the sole lead almost bold.
