Synopsis
Uptight and straight-laced, FBI Special Agent Sarah Ashburn (Sandra Bullock) is a methodical investigator with a reputation for excellence--and hyper-arrogance. Shannon Mullins (Melissa McCarthy), one of Boston P.D.'s "finest," is foul-mouthed and has a very short fuse, and uses her gut instinct and street smarts to catch the most elusive criminals. Neither has ever had a partner, or a friend for that matter. When these two wildly incompatible law officers join forces to bring down a ruthless drug lord, they become the last thing anyone expected: buddies. From Paul Feig, the director of Bridesmaids.

Everyone knows what Melissa McCarthy really looks like, and unless CGI technologies have advanced to an unprecedented to degree, her actual face will be on display when the comedy The Heat opens later this month.

The Heat Screenwriter And Paul Feig Plan Another Female Comedy At Fox

The Heat Screenwriter And Paul Feig Plan Another Female Comedy At Fox

The Heat director Paul Feig will be reuniting with Dippold for the project as both a director and a producer. Details on the untitled project are few, as it’s only being described as a “mother/daughter action comedy,” which places it squarely in the female-fronted area of fiction that comes so easily to Dippold and Feig. ...

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy both attended the Academy Awards on Sunday evening as presenters, though they did not share the stage at any moment.

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy's The Heat Pushes Release Date Back

Maybe Feig hasn’t finished The Heat yet and needed more time? The other theory is that Fox is so happy with the finished film that they’re confident it can out-perform its summer-movie competition. I’m really hoping that’s the case....

Sandra Bullock, Melissa McCarthy Continue To Crush In The Heat Trailer

Melissa McCarthy has two high-profile comedies rolling into theaters over the next few weeks. Yet, while her Identity Thief (with Jason Bateman) will reach area screens first, we’re kind of looking past that to the March release of The Heat thanks to hilarious new international trailers like this one, which recently landed online....

Sandra Bullock And Melissa McCarthy Are The Law In Red Band Trailer For The Heat

Writer/director Paul Feig has spent most of his career on his small screen, creating the series Freaks and Geeks and directing episodes of shows like The Office, Mad Men, Arrested Development, Weeds, Parks and Recreation and Nurse Jackie, but his career took in 2011.

Sandra Bullock And Melissa McCarthy Gear Up In The Heat Trailer

Sandra Bullock And Melissa McCarthy Gear Up In The Heat Trailer

The “buddy cop” formula went into hibernation a few years back, shelved by Riggs and Murtaugh when the latter actually did get “too old for this shit.” But it’s slowly making a comeback. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum teamed up for the hilarious 21 Jump Street earlier this year, and now Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy are strapping on the heat to play crime-fighting partners in the aptly-titled comedy The Heat. ...

Demian Bichir Joins Paul Feig's Buddy Cop Comedy The Heat

Demian Bichir hasn't really shown his funny side in Hollywood feature films just yet, starring in titles like Che, A Better Life and Savages (none of which could come close to being called "comedies), but that doesn't mean he's not experienced. In addition to his multi-episode run on the Showtime series Weeds - which typically is more of a comedy than a drama......

Rob Corddry Could Join Melissa McCarthy And Sandra Bullock In The Heat

Rob Corddry Could Join Melissa McCarthy And Sandra Bullock In The Heat

Corddry is currently in negotiations to join the film, but makes no mention of what his role may be. Though no one has yet been confirmed for the role of the movie's villain, I'm hoping Corddry will don a badge, as he was downright hilarious as the racist Homeland Security officer in Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay. ...
