The first full trailer for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s new film Sisters looks every bit as fun-filled and watchable as can be expected from the two leading comedians.

Directed by Pitch Perfect’s Jason Moore, the film follows two disconnected sisters who are brought back together to clean out their childhood bedrooms before their parents sell their family house.

Poehler plays “perfect sister” Maura, who is recovering from her recent divorce, while Fey plays “the other sister” (read: the naughty one) Jane.

To help Maura put her emotional baggage behind her, Jane suggests the sisters throw a big party – something they were never allowed to have when they were younger.

Cue ensuing hilarity, domestic mayhem and Poehler’s new love interest getting her ballerina music box stuck in an unmentionable place in the bedroom.

Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon and Rachel Dratch also feature in the comedy, penned by Saturday Night Live writer Paula Pell.

Poehler and Fey fans will have to wait until next year for the film’s release, when it’s due out in March.
