Ben Stiller (Zoolander, While We’re Young) va juca rolul principal in comedia Brad’s Status, a anuntat John Penotti – presedintele Sidney Kimmel Entertainment.
Mike White (The Good Girl, Enlightened) a scris si va regiza filmul, avandu-l in centru pe Brad – un barbat care, desi are o cariera infloritoare si o familie fericita, devine obsedat de succesul fostilor sai colegi de scoala. Cautand alaturi de fiul sau cel mai bun colegiu pentru acesta, Brad este fortat sa isi confrunte prietenii si propriile esecuri.
“Mike White‘s bold comedic voice echoes throughout this terrifically funny, and often poignant story about family, friends and the curveballs life throws our way. Ben Stiller has that rare ability to balance his amazing comedic skills with an emotional depth that brings us all closer to his characters. He’s so perfect for this great part,” au declarat Penotti si Carla Hacken de la Sidney Kimmel Entertainment.
SKE va finanta si produce Brad’s Status, alaturi de Plan B Entertainment. Filmarile vor incepe in septembrie.
