On paper, Get Hard, a film starring Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell, has god-level comedic possibilities. The trailer, which released yesterday (March 2), is all but an affirmation of the laughs the flick will give viewers.

Ferrell’s role, James King, is a white collar criminal who’s been sentenced to serve time at San Quentin State Prison. Scared out of his wits, and admittedly not bred for prison, he enlists Hart’s Darrell Lewis to prep him for what’s ahead. Little does King know that Lewis isn’t exactly the hardened ex-con that he promotes himself to be.

Directed by Etan Cohen, the comedy also stars Alison Brie, rapper T.I., Craig T. Nelson, and more.

Warner Bros releases Get Hard wide on March 27, a little over week after the movie premieres at SXSW on March 16. Peep the trailer below.
