Take A Stroll Down Memory Lane And Reminisce About What Made Girls Trip Such A Crazy Good Time
A year later the R-rated comedy not only topped off at $140 million worldwide, but it has debunked the ridiculous myth about films led by Black women not appealing to the general market. Bonus: Girls Trip also marked the first time an African-American female screenwriter’s work crossed the $100 million threshold (we see you, Tracy Oliver, who co-wrote the script with black-ish creator Kenya Barris). Now, as whispers swirl about a sequel, we’re revisiting the cast and creatives to talk about the magic behind the scenes and why we’re still laughing out loud.
