The trailer from [Yahoo](https://www.yahoo.com/movies/move-over-james-bond-melissa-mccarthy-is-horning-107983215232.html "undefined") gives us a look at Susan Cooper, a CIA analyst, who gets a chance to be in the field when the agents, played by the likes of Jude Law (doing an American accent) and Jason Statham (doing his own accent) are compromised by Rose Byrne’s character. (Yet another _Bridesmaids_ reunion.) Cue the funny wigs and ass kicking. Though McCarthy does have some trouble with a scooter. “Who puts a roof on a scooter? What are you, the Pope?” This movie could be a precursor to another re-teaming of Feig and McCarthy in the _Ghostbusters_ remake: According to _The Hollywood Reporter_, [McCarthy is in early talks to star](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/ghostbusters-reboot-eyes-melissa-mccarthy-761933 "undefined"). _Spy_ is due out May 22. _This_ [_article_](http://insidemovies.ew.com/2015/01/13/watch-a-trailer-for-melissa-mccarthys-new-movie-spy/?hootPostID=ef6732ff6d9d8daf3d6c6092cc9817ff "undefined") _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com "undefined")_._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3665685/melissa-mccarthy-spy-trailer/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3665685/melissa-mccarthy-spy-trailer/"},"headline":"Here's the Trailer for Melissa McCarthy's New Movie Spy","datePublished":"2015-01-13T16:26:35.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T03:32:03.144Z","description":"The movie will be another re-teaming of director Paul Feig and the actress","url":"https://time.com/3665685/melissa-mccarthy-spy-trailer/","keywords":["movies","spy","melissa mccarthy"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Esther Zuckerman / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3665685/melissa-mccarthy-spy-trailer/","name":"Here's the Trailer for Melissa McCarthy's New Movie Spy"}}]}] ```
