This September Mike Judge returns to the movie screen with a new comedy called Extract. After Fox tossed Office Space into a short theatrical run and dumped Idiocracy straight to DVD, Judge took his writing and directing talents to Miramax.
The movie stars Jason Bateman as the owner of a factory where flowers are extracted. He’s married to SNL’s only remaining funny female, Kristen Wiig, and has eyes for temporary employee Mila Kunis. Also starring is a stoner Ben Affleck and J.K. Simmons as a goof-off assistant manager.
The trailer is a bit of a disappointment, but I have no doubt that Judge will deliver.
Extract is in theaters September 4, 2009.
