Offerman joins Gay Dude
Offerman will be joined by his real life wife, Will & Grace star Megan Mullally, who will be playing his ex in the flick.
The film will feature Nicholas Braun and Hunter Cope who play two best friends, who make a pact to lose their virginity before their senior prom (nothing new their then). However the film takes a slight twist when Cope’s character comes out as gay to his best friend.
Offerman will be playing the father of Brauns character, while Gary Cole has signed on to play Cope’s father, who happens to be conservative. Mullally will be playing his mother and star of The Hurt Locker Brian Geraghty has signed on to play his annoying older brother.
With such a strong cast and Chris Nelson calling the shots on this film, it looks as though we may get a film that centres on two teenager’s mission to lose their virginity that stays clear of all the clichés that have engulfed these movies since the American Pie franchise burst onto the scene over a decade ago. Lets hope.
Apes Still Dominating
The film took an amazing $27.5 million, which despite being a 49% decrease in sales was still enough to keep it on top. Its nearest competitor was comedy/drama The Help which took $25.5 million over the weekend.
The latest piece in Final Destination franchise limped in at number three, taking in $18.4 million. Although this may seem like a good weekend, after the success of the previous four films this may be the franchises final destination.
The Smurfs movie dropped for second place to fourth, taking in $13.5 million. Comedy film 30 Minutes or Less rounded off the top five taking in $13 million.
Probably the biggest box office disappointment this week comes from the Glee 3D Concert Movie, which didn’t even make it into the top ten at the box office. The film only took $5.7 million and crawled in at 11th place. I wonder what the heads at Fox have to say about that?
