Spa Weekend follows four lifelong friends who leave behind careers, relationships and family responsibilities for a luxury retreat. Their planned break becomes a lively weekend of laughter and questionable choices, with Leslie Mann, Michelle Buteau, Anna Faris and Isla Fisher leading this 2026 comedy.

Spa Weekend centers on four lifelong friends who have become so occupied with work, relationships, family and daily obligations that self-care—and time for one another—has slipped away.

Directed and written by Scott Moore and Jon Lucas, the 2026 comedy brings the group together at a luxury spa retreat, where a restorative weekend quickly takes on a more chaotic character.

Story without spoilers

Jane, Coco, Sophie and Mel are longtime friends facing the familiar pressures of adult life. Realizing they have neglected both their own well-being and their friendship, they arrange a getaway designed to provide rest, laughter and a chance to reconnect.

The retreat does not remain entirely calm. As the weekend unfolds, the friends find themselves caught up in a series of bad decisions, making the spa escape less conventional—and far more memorable—than originally intended.
