Remember, this is Disney we’re talking about; I don’t think the weed smoking, expletive-spewing version of Ms. Bell will fly in this particular project.
Despite Jillian Bell and Channing Tatum’s shared tradition of delving into R-rated comedies, it does not sound like Splash will follow that same formula.
We are sure that they are both up to the task, but it will prove incredibly interesting to see what they will do with more restrictions regarding what they can say or do on-camera.
Seemingly taking it as a personal and professional challenge, Bell’s recent comments to Uproxx make it seem like these two comedy powerhouses will make a left turn and commit themselves to keeping the laughs firmly in the realm of clean, family-friendly PG humor.
