Get Him To The Greek.

Will the sequel be/perform better without Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis and Jason Segel? Will the US be receptive to Brand again, especially after the MTV Awards?


Plot:
Aaron Greenberg (Jonah Hill) is a driven, idealistic young college graduate who works at a record company. Aaron is given his big break when he is sent to transport Aldous Snow (Russell Brand), a drugged-out, flaky, British musician to a concert at L.A.'s Greek Theater.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Forgetting Sarah Marshall" helmer Nick Stoller is reteaming with Judd Apatow and Universal Pictures for the comedy "Get Him to the Greek," with Jonah Hill and Russell Brand attached to star.

Stoller has been tapped to write and direct the laffer, which centers on a fresh-out-of-college insurance adjuster (Hill) who is hired to accompany an out-of-control rock star (Brand) from London to a gig at L.A.'s Greek Theater.

"During the table read on 'Sarah Marshall,' Jonah and Russell had such a great chemistry," said Stoller, who described "Greek" as a very dirty take on "Almost Famous." "Even though they are such different actors with different styles, I thought there could be a great buddy comedy there."
