The first trailer for the Forgetting Sarah Marshall spin-off Get Him to the Greek was released today. The movie follows the character of Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) as he is transported from London to the Greek Theater in LA by a record company intern (Jonah Hill). Some others to appear in the movie include Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs, Aziz Ansari, Katy Perry and Pink. Nicholas Stoller returns from Marshall to direct and Judd Apatow produces.
It may be a little confusing because the character of Aldous Snow is continued from Marshall. However Jonah Hill, who played a waiter in that movie, takes on a whole new character in Greek. FSM was one of my favorite comedies from 2008 and has held up very well in viewings since so I’m really looking forward to this spin-off. Get Him to the Greek is slated to release on June 4th.
