The last time Amy Schumer was pregnant, she turned in an Emmy-nominated comedy special; this time, she’s only Kinda Pregnant. In a new Happy Madison film from The Out-Lawsdirector Tyler Spindel and screenwriter Julie Paiva, Schumer plays Lainy, a woman who gets so jealous of her best friend’s pregnancy that she starts to wear a fake baby bump of her own.
