Sometimes, you just need to laugh. And in the new comedy The Gutter, from Yassir and Isaiah Lester, you’ll get that chance. The new flick features hilarious performances from Shameik Moore and D’Arcy Carden. It also offers an impressive line up of co-stars including Adam Brody, Rell Battle, Adam Pally, Paul Reiser, and Susan Sarandon. Centering around a miracle bowler, the film offers dramatic actor Shameik (Dope, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse) a chance to try something fresh. And yes, the man succeeds. The chemistry between Moore and Carden is fantastic.

Recently, I had the chance to chat with Yassir, Isaiah, and the film’s co-lead, D’Arcy Carden. First up, speaking to the filmmakers, they opened up about the process of creating this comedy. It’s a rare thing to see an outrageous and sometimes risky comedy in this day and age. They talked about their approach and giving Moore the chance to be funny. As well, we spoke with the lovely Ms. .Carden. She talked about working with the Lester brothers, and finding connection with Shameik. The Gutter opens today in theatres and streaming. If you want to just have a good time and laugh, The Gutter is not a bad place to start.
