Is Ricky Stanicky a Retelling of The Importance of Being Earnest?
Despite one being a John Cena movie and the other being a play by the great Oscar Wilde, there are some striking similarities between the two stories.
Directed by Peter Farrelly, Ricky Stanicky is a raunchy buddy comedy currently available to stream on Prime Video. The story follows three childhood friends who create a fictitious persona they use as a culprit to blame their problems on. As adults, Dean (Zac Efron), Wes (Jermaine Fowler), and JT (Andrew Santino) continue to use their made-up best friend, Ricky Stanicky, as a get-out-of-jail-free card until their significant others demand to meet Ricky in person.
