Lionsgate has dropped a new Joy Ride trailer for the upcoming R-rated comedy featuring Oscar nominee Stephanie Hsu and Emily in Paris star Ashley Park. The movie is set to make its debut in theaters on July 7.
“The hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery centers on four unlikely friends who embark on a once-in-a-lifetime international adventure,” reads the synopsis. “When Audrey’s business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo, her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat, her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye, Lolo’s eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.”
