The one thing you’re guaranteed with a Will Ferrell comedy is a certain juvenile ambience that takes no brain power to watch, one where you can sit back on a Friday night and put the stresses of the week behind you. The brand new trailer for The House, where Amy Poehler stars as his onscreen wife, has all the exact same ingredients you would expect for this comedy concoction.

Making his feature film directorial debut on the picture is Andrew Jay Cohen who served as co-writer on Zac Efron’s Bad Neighbours and Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, Cohen also co-wrote this project alongside his writing partner Brendan O’Brien so we are guessing the comedy antics of The House won’t veer too far away from what has already worked for them. Antics that include, opening a casino in their home, they trailer hits on rooms with a strip club and even Ferrell accidentally chopping someone’s finger off as far as we can tell.
