It’s a been <a href="http://players.brightcove.net/716147494/default_default/index.html?videoId=5303657519001'">almost three years since we first learned that Malcolm D. Lee and Will Packer </a>were teaming up to produce and direct a movie about a group of Black women traveling to New Orleans for <i>Essence </i>festival.

At the time, the details were sparse but since then, we’ve learned that the film stars Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith, Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish. During the trip, the women, who have known one another since college, tap into their wild sides while simultaneously rekindling their friendship.
Plus there are some pretty nice cameos in there, including Larenz Tate, Kofi Siriboe, Mike Colter, and I swore I got a glimpse of Hillary Clinton, but I could be tweaking.
Check out the trailer for the film in the video below.
