Description

An all-star ensemble cast is featured in “The Skeleton Twins”, including Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig, Luke Wilson, Ty Burrell and Joanna Gleason.

After many years of estrangement, twins Maggie (Kristen Wiig) and Milo (Bill Hader) lead separate lives on opposite sides of the country. When both feel that they're at the end of their ropes, an unexpected reunion forces them to confront how their lives went so wrong. For Maggie, that means re-examining her marriage to sweet “nature frat boy” Lance and her own self-destructive tendencies, while Milo must face the pain of an early heartbreak he never quite got past.

As the twins’ reunion reinvigorates them both, they realize the key to fixing their lives just may lie in accepting the past and mending their relationship with each other. With painful wounds that only the other can understand, Milo and Maggie grow closer as they try to guide each other through this newest set of secrets. Eventually Milo and Maggie grow to understand that living truthfully and sharing their lives with each other is the only way they can move forward and reclaim the happiness they once enjoyed together.

Critics and audiences are raving about “The Skeleton Twins”. Entertainment Weekly calls the film “smart and really funny. Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader are fantastic. Their chemistry is infectious!” The Hollywood Reporter calls the film “warm, funny and heartfelt”, while Rolling Stone Magazine raves “Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig are uproarious! The comic and dramatic range of their performances will blow you away!”
