ROUND YOUNG VIRGIN, MOTHER AND CHILD (WHO ARE WE KIDDING?) As Facebook says ‘it’s complicated,’ and Todd agrees, “Your relationship with your mother is always evolving. In the film this is a moment when Amy and her mom have to take a look at their relationship and decide how it is going to change based on the conflict. And it is so fitting that all our moms cast, and all our mom’s moms cast, have daughters themselves in their real lives.” Says Moore, “There is no way your child is going to parent the same way you did, so there is friction. When your child parents differently than the way you did, you can’t help but feel judged.” Continues Moore, “As a parent, whether you are a mom or a dad, there is this point when your kids become adults and you go from having a parent/child relationship to being peers, and we found that dynamic really interesting.” The moms’ moms had palpable chemistry from day one on set. Says Hines, “The three moms’ moms characters shared the realization that we have to figure out our own lives, that we can’t just hope our daughters are going to put up with our shit, though it would be more fun for us if they did.” Inquiring minds want to know if Lucas and Moore ever based their Bad Moms characters on their own real life family members. Says Lucas, “We’ve seen certain patterns in other family relationships that we stole from, but the mom’s moms are a pretty eclectic bunch, so I would never want to say they resemble anyone in our family. These are more things we have observed.” Says Moore, “We have heard that a lot of people were shocked that Bad Moms was written by two men, we like to think that ‘yes, we wrote it,’ but a lot of it came from listening to our wives. We were less creating it than being documentary filmmakers.” Lucas laughs, “And that’s as close as we are ever going to get to documentary filmmaking.” 
LORDS A LEAPING Returning for A Bad Moms Christmas is Amy’s boyfriend Jessie, played by Jay Hernandez. Jessie and Amy are further along in their relationship and spending Christmas as a blended family. Jessie however isn’t prepared for Amy’s mom’s antics as the most wonderful time of the year escalates to chaos. Hernandez had many moments on the set when the dialogue would ring true. “I kept looking over my shoulder wondering how did Jon and Scott know that my own mother has said that same thing to me?” Continues Hernandez, “Real life mothers put their genetic imprint on their daughters. You can’t avoid it, whether you like it or not.” Hernandez gives credit to the all the moms out there who are raising their kids. “They have a lot on their plate, and sometimes they just have to cut loose like in the first film and now in A Bad Moms Christmas. It was a good reminder to everybody, including myself.” 
FELIZ NAVI-DADS Peter Gallagher joins the cast as Hank, Amy’s father and Ruth’s husband. Gallagher and Christine Baranski are old friends, as they starred together over thirty years ago in the Broadway hit The Real Thing, and many years later when Gallagher had a role on “The Good Wife.” “Ruth has control issues,” says Gallagher. “She wears the pants in the family and sometimes she lets Hank wear the pants, but mostly he is wearing shorts.” Adds Gallagher, “It’s great to be a dad in A Bad Moms Christmas because sometimes you have to stand in the background and just watch. Jay Hernandez and I are perfectly happy to take a back seat to this extraordinarily funny female cast. For every mother or daughter who feels like their experience hasn’t been recognized, this is your movie. You’ll be howling.”
