I can't remember what country they said the Ebola outbreak was in.
Added DiffLines:
* InventedIndividual: The guys invented Ricky as a cover for a prank gone wrong. They kept using him and their friends and family all came to believe he was real. Eventually, it gets to the point where they expect him at the Whitaker's Bris and they hire unknown actor Rock Hard Ron to play him. He gets into character and greatly impresses their friends and family to the point where Dean and JT's boss offers "Ricky" a job.
Added DiffLines:
* SpottingTheThread: [[spoiler: Erin realizes Ricky is fake at the Bris when they use an Ebola outbreak as an excuse for him needing to catch a plane, something that has stopped happening thanks to the widespread use of the vaccine.]]

''Ricky Stanicky'' is an American comedy film directed by Creator/PeterFarrelly. It is set to release on Creator/PrimeVideo on March 7, 2024.
Three longtime friends, Dean (Creator/ZacEfron), JT (Creator/AndrewSantino), and Wes (Creator/JermaineFowler), have used an imaginary friend, "Ricky Stanicky", as a coverup for misadventures for several years. But when their latest lie is on the verge of being found out, they hire a wannabe actor, Rod (Creator/JohnCena), to pretend to be Ricky. Unfortunately, "Ricky" ingrains himself into their lives a little too well.
----
!!Tropes:
* BecomingTheMask: The trailer shows that Rod really grows to like his Ricky Stanicky persona and wants to become him permanently.
* CharacterTitle: As seen in the poster, the film's title is ''Ricky Stanicky'' after the pivotal imaginary friend.
* PottyFailure: The trailer shows that Ricky has peed his pants at their airport.
* RhymingNames: Invoked, the trailer shows that the rhyming "Ricky Stanicky" is a made-up name.
* TheTopicOfCancer: To cover for their debauched boys' trip in the trailer, the guys claim their longtime madeup friend Ricky has cancer. On the plane going there, Wes lampshades that cancer is a terrible lie to tell because everyone will worry.
* YiddishAsASecondLanguage: "Ricky" introduces himself with a bombastic "Ayyy, ''mishpocha[[note]]family[[/note]]''!" in the trailer.
