But with recent endeavors such as _The Skeleton Twins_ and [_Nasty Baby_](http://time.com/3966465/nasty-baby-kristen-wiig-sebastian-silva/), the 42-year-old actress has shown that she also has a darker side. On Monday night’s episode of _Jimmy Kimmel Live!_, Wiig premiered the trailer for her “new” film, _Crying in a Sweater_, and proved she has dramatic chops. True to the title of the movie, she spends the entirety of the clip crying into an assortment of sweaters. Pull quotes from various reviews praising the emotionally charged flick are shown, declaring that it is “a raw, aching, tour de force” and the actress’s performance is “the Wiigaissannce.” According to Kimmel, the Michael Bay-directed movie is already receiving Oscar buzz.
