The movie will document two sisters (Tina Fey and Amy Poehler) who attempt to throw one last party in their childhood home before their parents sell it.

Cena missed the July 21 edition of WWE RAW to film scenes for the movie and will miss at least one more episode of RAW heading into his title defense against Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam on August 17th.
