Let's Kill Ward's Wife

Let's Kill Ward's Wife is a 2014 American black comedy film written and directed by Scott Foley. Marking Foley's feature-film directorial debut, the film stars Patrick Wilson, Foley, Donald Faison, and James Carpinello. Foley, Wilson, and Carpinello produced the film, along with Joe Hardesty. The film follows three friends (Wilson, Foley, and Carpinello) who plan to kill their friend Ward's (Faison) abusive wife, Stacy (Dagmara Domińczyk).
The cast consists almost entirely of actors who are related to one another, with many being siblings or spouses. For example, Wilson is married to Domińczyk, who portrays the wife of Faison's character, and Carpinello is married to Amy Acker, who portrays the wife of Foley's character.
The film was released on video on demand on December 23, 2014 prior to its limited release on January 9, 2015. It has received generally negative reviews, with criticism aimed at its humor and portrayal of women.
