Father’s Day is this weekend, but if you’re a dad who happens to love Will Ferrell comedies, then one gift has come early. It’s the first trailer for Daddy’s Home, starring Ferrell as a step-dad who thinks he’s finally making progress with his wife’s kids, only to have their biological dad enter the picture again.

That plot may have the makings of a drama, but that’s just not the case with Daddy’s Home. Mark Wahlberg plays the kids’ hunky dad, and their obvious affection for him drives new dad Ferrell crazy. So he does the natural thing and enters an increasingly outlandish battle for the kids’ love.

But since this is a Will Ferrell comedy, that battle goes a touch beyond just buying the kids a pet. Check it out.
