Amy plays Lainy in the movie and when her ‘plan to settle down and start a family falls apart, she puts on a fake baby bump, tells a lie – and accidentally falls for her dream guy,’ according to the synopsis.
The I’m So Pretty star also made a stop at the Howard Stern Show where she spoke about her experience with Ozempic after the host mentioned his dislike of the drug.

Ozempic is an FDA-approved prescription medication to treat type 2 diabetes. The medication is administered weekly by injection in the thigh, stomach or arm.
It is a brand name for semaglutide, which works in the brain to impact satiety and as such, has exploded in popularity as a way to lose weight quickly.
The comedienne said she lost 30 pounds while taking the diabetes medicine that is also used for weight loss.
She started taking the once a week sH๏τ in 2022 but soon started vomiting and having constant nausea.
Schumer later learned that she has the GDF15 gene, which means her body produces ‘abnormally low levels’ of the GDF15 hormone that ’causes taste aversion, nausea and vomiting,’ as per the HER Foundation.
The hormone is produced during pregnancy as well as ‘by organs under stress and by tumors.’

‘I have this gene – GDF15 – which makes you extremely prone to nausea which is why I was so sick during my pregnancy,’ Schumer, who welcomed a son with husband Chris Fischer in 2019, revealed on Wednesday’s episode of SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show.
The Trainwreck star’s GDF15 sensitivity affected her when she was using Ozempic.
‘So, I tried Ozempic almost three years ago and I was like bedridden, I was vomiting and then you have no energy but other people take it and they’re all good,’ she explained.
While she lost 30 pounds taking the drug, Schumer said that it prevents her from being able to play with her five-year-old son Gene.
‘I lost 30 pounds so quick [on it]. I looked great and I couldn’t lift my head off the pillow, so what’s the point?’
Schumer joked that all the positives being advertised about Ozempic are ‘red flags’ and that even Oprah Winfrey — who admitted to taking a GLP-1 to lose weight — is now skinnier than Stern.
Ultimately, the Life & Beth star decided Ozempic was not for her due to her the side effects.
‘And you’re like, “OK, this isn’t livable for me.” But I immediately invested [in it] because I knew everyone was going to try it,’ she added.

The Unfrosted star also shared her opinion on fellow celebrities ‘lying’ about taking Ozempic for weight loss.
‘Everyone has been lying saying, “Oh smaller portions.” Like shut the f*** up.
‘You are on Ozempic or one of those things or you got work done. Just stop,’ she said.
‘Be real with the people. When I got lipo, I said I got lipo,’ she added.
