These are seven of the funniest people alive. They all happen to be women. They all happen to be in their 40’s and 50’s. They all happen to be best friends. And they are making a movie.

If you aren’t screaming, flinging white wine, and checking to make sure you still have access to your friend’s ex-boyfriend’s brother’s Netflix account, you are making a mistake.

“Wine Country,” produced and directed by Amy Poehler and written by “Parks and Recreation” scribe Emily Spivey, might be the biggest thing to happen to entertainment this decade (other than the rumored Spice Girls reunion.) Spivey and Poehler will star alongside comedy goddesses Tina Fey, Paula Pell, Ana Gasteyer, and most excitedly, beloved Jewish humor superstars Maya Rudolph and Rachel Dratch.

Oh, and there will be wine involved! Happy, happy day.

It’s happening—Amy Poehler’s directorial debut, Wine Country, is coming soon to Netflix! Starring Amy Poehler, Rachel Dratch, Ana Gasteyer, Paula Pell, Maya Rudolph, Emily Spivey and featuring Tina Fey. Get excited. Get real excited. pic.twitter.com/kZedPmzeVC

Are you one of our 2%?

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.

But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses  —  take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.

Don’t just read the Forward — invest in it. Support our work today!
