MacGruber: Christopher Nolan Sends Encouraging Email to Cast and Crew
Joined by Vicki (Kristen Wiig) and usually the SNL host as another character, MacGruber always found himself in situations where he had to disarm a bomb After asking for his random items from paper clips to gum wrappers, something always distracted the hero in another direction While the other characters try to get MacGruber refocused,[...]
Danny Trejo Song - SNL
Kristen Wiig made all the sense in the world to host the season finale, except this time She's a comedic powerhouse who chews up the stage and screen every time she's out there, but having her in the "at home" format reminded me of how restrictive things actually are Along with that, the guest appearances[...]

9 Times Melissa McCarthy Was Everything (Including "The Kitchen")
Bridesmaids In a cast of luminaries including co-writer Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Rose Byrne, Wendi McLendon-Covey, and Ellie Kemper, and one of the funniest films of the last decade, McCarthy somehow manages to stick out as the best and the most memorable She's essentially batting cleanup on a team of all-stars– like being Babe Ruth on[...]

Emma Stone Will Host Saturday Night Live When It Returns On December 3rd
The musical guest will be Shawn Mendes, who I'm sure will deliver a performance that will leave me feeling like I just don't understand music anymore, as most SNL musical performances do. Here's the three funniest sketches from this past weekend's show, hosted by Kristen Wiig (it was three fourths of a Ghostbusters: Answer The Call reunion!) as[...]

Bill Hader And Kristen Wiig Are The Skeleton Twins In First Trailer
It's always a bit bizarre when SNL comedians do more straight drama – are they just playing deadpan sarcastically, or are they actually being serious? That's the case in the first trailer for Sundance dramedy The Sekelton Twins, starring Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader as siblings who are reconnecting. I think they're being really serious here[...]

Six-Minute Long Trailer For Ben Stiller's The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty
This is like an extended version of the 2 minute trailers for The Secret Life of Walter Mitty that have already been floating out there, so I give props to the marketing team over at Fox for cutting together such a long clip that doesn't spoil anything more substantial like whole scenes or plot points. Ben[...]
New Anchorman 2 Character Posters Take Over New York City
I totally love these, especially Kristen Wiig's, although unless I'm missing something, Megan Goode's just doesn't make any sense, does it? Wasn't I just saying that character posters had gotten a little stale, pointless and superfluous in recent days? Well, leave it to Anchorman 2 to do something different and actually fun The original News[...]

It's mostly Tobey Maguire, Kristen Wiig, Tim Robbins, et al acting very dramatically If that's your thing, this premieres on IFC on January 9th. I… What is this? I don't think I'm cool enough to get the joke here, but this is a new comedy miniseries on IFC and it's got a pretty splashy big-name[...]
Kristen Wiig And Will Ferrell May Join Forces Again In Welcome To Me
If Wiig and Ferrell don't somehow cancel one another out, I imagine we'll be in for a bit of a treat.
