20th Century Fox’s Spy starring Melissa McCarthy is not a spy spoof, but its title song is an obvious homage to all of the memorable Bond movie songs. “Who Can You Trust” by Ivy Levan could easily be confused for a Bond song, and the new music video further blurs the line between Spy and Bond.
Written and directed by Paul Feig, McCarthy’s Spy co-stars include Rose Byrne, Jason Statham, Jude Law, Bobby Cannavale, Allison Janney, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, and Miranda Hart. Spy opens in theaters on June 5, 2015.
The Plot: Susan Cooper (McCarthy) is an unassuming, deskbound CIA analyst, and the unsung hero behind the Agency’s most dangerous missions. But when her partner (Law) falls off the grid and another top agent (Statham) is compromised, she volunteers to go deep undercover to infiltrate the world of a deadly arms dealer, and prevent a global disaster.
