Release
Tammy Tiehel-Stedman said of producers: "they will have the task to shop the film to festivals and look for distribution opportunities. It will take nearly 18 months in post production before general audiences have their chance to laugh"[8] thus suggesting theatrical release of Bad Boys Crazy Girls in late 2015.
