Icon. Maverick. Celebrity. Billionaire. Felon. Boss. Welcome to the story of a comeback kid who has worked her balls off to get to where she’s at today. Trust that the wealthiest woman in the country isn’t going to let little somethings like bankruptcy and federal prison cramp her golden style. She’s a phoenix who’s gonna climb and crawl her way back to the top. She sure as sh*t will. Ladies and gentlemen…meet The Boss.

McCarthy created her Michelle Darnell character during her time in the acclaimed improv troupe The Groundlings, and it’s a character she always wanted to do more with. “I loved her so much that I couldn’t let her go and would randomly bring her up and talk about her over the years. She’s a tricky one, though, because she is so dynamic, so forceful and so confident. Yet, Michelle is someone who makes you wonder what lies beneath it all when she says, ‘I don’t need anyone, other than myself.’”

The Boss is rated 14A.
