Just last week, people were wondering where Jeremy Renner was in Marvel’s INFINITY WAR trailer… this week he’s all over the trailer for the new comedy TAG, which involves a group of five friends who have been playing an ongoing game of tag since first grade, and nothing in life is off limits. Renner plays the one friend no one can ever get, and who is now getting married. Jon Hamm, Jake Johnson, Ed Helms, and Hannibal Buress make up the group of buddies, and the cast also includes Annabelle Wallis, Leslie Bibb, Rashida Jones, Isla Fisher, Brian Dennehy, Sebastian Maniscalco, Nora Dunn, and Steve Berg. This comes from the writing team of Rob McKittrick (who gave us WAITING) and Mark Steilen (who executive produced shows like MOZART IN THE JUNGLE and SHAMELESS). Check out the first trailer below, and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
For one month every year, five highly competitive friends hit the ground running in a no-holds-barred game of tag they’ve been playing since the first grade—risking their necks, their jobs and their relationships to take each other down with the battle cry: “You’re It!” This year, the game coincides with the wedding of their only undefeated player, which should finally make him an easy target. But he knows they’re coming…and he’s ready. Based on a true story, the New Line Cinema comedy “Tag” shows how far some guys will go to be the last man standing.
