Paul Feig, known for The Housemaid and The Office, wrote and directed Spy. It features Jason Statham as Rick, Rose Byrne as Rayna, Melissa McCarthy as Susan, Jude Law as Bradley, Allison Janney as Elaine, Bobby Cannavale as Sergio, Morena Baccarin as Karen, and 50 Cent as himself, among others.

The story centers on Susan, a desk-bound CIA agent, as she assists her field agent Bradley on his mission. However, when the mission goes terribly wrong, Susan goes undercover because the identities of other CIA agents have been compromised. She navigates the criminal world while trying to locate a nuclear bomb’s dealer.

Along the way, Susan faces interruptions from Rick Ford, a rogue agent who doesn’t believe that she can complete the mission due to a lack of experience in the field.

Spy debuted at the South by Southwest (SXSW) annual event on March 15. 20th Century Fox, the film’s distributor, released the film in the United States on June 5, 2015.
