Frankie Muniz
I have never been a fan of Frankie Muniz. I am sure if I ever met the guy in person I will be eating my words, but on TV I always thought the young actor as a bit of a, I don't know, tird.
I, however, most likely one of the few who have come to this conclusion and there are those even willing to test Muniz out in a sexual comedy. I am trying... but I still can't see it.
Muniz, Kennedy, Pinkston for Parental Guidance Suggested
According to THR, Frankie Muniz, Ryan Pinkston, Jamie Kennedy, Andy Milonakis and Matthew Lillard have joined the cast in writers-directors Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson's teen sketch sex comedy "Parental Guidance Suggested" for indie producers Richard Suckle, Warren Zide and Laura Lichstein.
"Saturday Night Live" stars Andy Samberg and Will Forte wrote segments of the screenplay with Epstein, Jacobson, John Solomon and fellow "SNL" writers Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone.
Other cast includes Michael Cera, Kevin Hart, Joanna Garcia and Ashley Schneider. Since there are up to 70 speaking roles in this film, the cast is bound to be massive.
Epstein and Jacobson have had previous experience with sex comedy by co-writing Not Another Teen Movie.
Muniz stars as a teen who loses his virginity with his girlfriend (Schneider), only to find she wants to take things much further, including farm animals and midgets. In the film's one ongoing sketch, Pinkston (best known as the kid prankster on MTV's first season of "Punk'd") plays an average high-schooler who falls for the cutest girl in his class but finds he's looking for love in all the wrong places.
Kennedy plays a young man facing the aftermath of a crazy night of partying. Milonakis' character falls in love with an electric vagina, and Lillard hosts a spoof of TV public service announcements about teen sex.
Cera's character meets a girl (Garcia) online and goes to her home for role-playing sex games, only to realize he's in the wrong apartment. Hart plays a kid obsessed with building the perfect woman on his computer a la "Weird Science."
Hot damn! Is this film trying to out-due American Pie or what?
Stay tuned for updates.
