\u201cIt\u2019s so much fun. We just wrapped after three months of filming. We ended in Vegas. It was a dream job,\u201d Longoria told People<\/a>. \u201cFirst of all, it\u2019s a big, unapologetically R-rated female comedy that feels modern and contemporary.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to Kardashian, the movie stars Nikki Glaser, Brenda Song, Fortune Feimster, Jack Whitehall, Casey Wilson, Scott MacArthur and Will Ferrell.<\/p>\n \u201cKim is the anchor of the movie,\u201d explained Longoria. \u201cWe just had a blast.
