What to Expect When You're Expecting

ComedyDramaRomance110 min

Five couples are knocked off balance by the approach of parenthood, whether it arrives as a surprise pregnancy, an adoption plan, or twins on the way. Cameron Diaz is Jules, a TV fitness guru expecting her first child with dance-show star Evan, while Elizabeth Banks's Wendy — an author who built a career on pregnancy advice — finds herself blindsided by the symptoms and chaos of her own experience. Elsewhere, photographer Holly is ready to adopt, her husband is quietly panicking, and rival food-truck cooks Rosie and Marco have to reckon with a one-time hookup that changes both of their plans.
