Aziz Ansari, Amy Schumer, Jennifer Lawrence & Chris Pratt Are Our New #SquadGoals
No offense to Taylor Swift's gal (and guy) pals, but a new foursome is giving Swifty some fierce competition in the #squadgoals department.
Aziz Ansari, Amy Schumer, Jennifer Lawrence, and Chris Pratt all hung out together this weekend in Atlanta, and to our great disappointment, we weren't invited. But thanks to the power of social media, we can (digitally) join in on their fun.
Ansari Parks and Rec" costar Pratt stands nearby, giving his best blue steel. The quick clip, entitled "hi guys" (we're guessing because that's what Ansari shouts as he swings back and forth), also has some major star power behind the scenes, according to Ansari: Lawrence directed, Schumer served as director of photography, and Ansari, Pratt, Schumer, and Schumer's sister and writing partner, Kim Caramele, all hand a hand in the (alleged) script.
Schumer also shared her own video of Ansari and Lawrence (who's mentioned in the caption, but not seen) waking up Caramele, who doesn't seem too thrilled. Does she not realize that that's a New York Times bestselling author and an Oscar winner knocking down her door?
The official explanation for why the foursome was together in the first place is a bit boring: Ansari and Schumer were in Atlanta performing at the Oddball Comedy Festival, and Lawrence -- with whom Schumer is writing a comedy movie script -- is in Atlanta shooting "Passengers" with Pratt. We'd like to imagine that the actors are all just such good BFFs that they hang out all the time regardless of location. Either way, we haven't been this jealous of a hangout since Schumer and Lawrence had the best vacation ever and crashed a Billy Joel concert.
Here's hoping that all four of these funny folks find a way to work together again. Perhaps Ansari and Pratt can cameo in Schumer and Lawrence's film? Fingers crossed.
