WB has decided to rename the upcoming holiday comedy to the more politically correct movie title "Father Figures." But don't let the new name fool you, Owen Wilson and Ed Helms are still a couple of "Bastards!" As you can see in this new profanity-filled red band trailer, in which Wilson and Helms play twin brothers who are on a mission to find out just exactly who their birth father is.

After finding out that their eccentric mother (Glenn Close) had been keeping a big secret from twin brothers Peter and Kyle Reynolds (Helms and Wilson) that their father did not die and might still be out in the world never knowing that they ever existed, the two bastards then decide to go on a road trip to see if they can finally reunite with Dear Old Dad, who might just be Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw (as himself), or Oscar-winners J.K. Simmons and Christopher Walken or possibly Ving Rhames.

Making his directorial debut is veteran cinematographer Lawrence Sher (War Dogs, The Hangover Trilogy, Garden State) with a screenplay by Justin Malen (Office Christmas Party, Baywatch). The film also co-stars Katt Williams, June Squibb, Kate Aselton, and Harry Shearer.

"Father Figures" (which was formerly known as "Bastards") is now set to open in theaters on December 22.

synopsis:
