The first trailer for the hopefully-saved-by-Jason-Bateman comedy The Switch has come online.  The film was previously titled The Baster, but that was deemed too risqué since the film is about artificial insemination.  Instead, the trailer just has Juliette Lewis waving a baster in Jason Bateman’s face.  This is followed by a scene where Bateman knocks over a sperm donation by accident and then refills it off screen.  Crisis averted.

The premise has Bateman as a guy who got caught in the friend zone with Jennifer Aniston’s character.  She decided to get pregnant through artificial insemination and chose the dreamy sperm of Patrick Wilson’s character.  But as we mentioned before, comic circumstances lead to a change-up and Bateman’s “hijacks” her pregnancy.  Seven years later, he recognizes that he has a son, but doesn’t know how to handle the situation.

Now you know why I put “hopefully-saved-by-Jason-Bateman »
