Overview

Two FBI agent brothers, Marcus and Kevin Copeland, accidentally foil a drug bust. To avoid being fired they accept a mission escorting a pair of socialites to the Hamptons--but when the girls are disfigured in a car accident, they refuse to go. Left without options, Marcus and Kevin decide to pose as the sisters, transforming themselves from black men into rich white women. Wikipedia ↗

About the Film

White Chicks is a 2004 American buddy cop comedy directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans. Shawn Wayans and Marlon Wayans star as Kevin and Marcus Copeland, two African-American FBI agents who go undercover as white socialite heiresses Brittany and Tiffany Wilson — using elaborate prosthetic makeup to disguise themselves as blonde white women — to foil a kidnapping plot targeting the real Wilson sisters. The comedy derived from the extreme disconnect between Kevin and Marcus's street-smart personas and the privileged, shallow world of Hamptons socialites they must convincingly inhabit.

The prosthetic transformation was deliberately unconvincing in a way that became part of the comedy — that nobody in the film questioned the disguise was itself the joke. White Chicks earned $113 million worldwide on a $37 million budget and became a massive cult comedy, particularly popular with audiences who embraced its shameless, broad humor.
