Starring Jennifer Garner, Ty Burrell, and Olivia Wilde in the leads, the first trailer for Butter landed last night, and now two awesome new images have been released, seeing Wilde show off a darker image that she pulls off like few can.

The trio star alongside Ashley Greene, Alicia Silverstone, Rob Corddry, Kristen Schaal, Yara Shahidi, and Hugh Jackman, and the plot sounds like it should be a lot of fun, especially given that it’s R-rated for language and sexual content (when the plot sounds like it’s for a family film).

“When her husband is unceremoniously asked to step down after taking first prize for fifteen years as the master Butter Carver at the Iowa State Fair, the limelight-seeking, ultra-competitive Laura Pickler takes on a 12-year-old, African-American butter sculpting prodigy in a butter carving contest of epic proportions.”

Jim Field Smith (She’s Out Of My League, Episodes) returns for his second feature behind the camera, directing from a script penned by newcomer Jason A. Miccalef.

Butter will be released in the US on 5th October. No word yet on a UK release, but with such excellent talent involved, I’m hoping we’ll see it on our shores before the year’s end, too. For now, enjoy these two new images, and as usual, you can click to enlarge.
