Universal has released a trailer, poster, and a barrage of images for Get Him to the Greek, a spin-off comedy with Jonah Hill and Russell Brand from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Brand is reprising his role as Aldous Snow and Hill is playing a music assistant named Aaron Greenberg (not the awkward waiter of the 2008 hit).
Greenberg is tasked with getting Snow to the Greek Theatre for an anniversary concert. Potential hilarity ensues when getting the now off-the-wagon rocker to cooperate in making it to the performance on time.
Sean “P. Diddy” Combs is also part of the cast that may include cameos by Katy Perry, Pink, Oasis, Christina Aguilera, and other celebrities Brand ran into at the 2008 MTV VMAs.
The trailer isn’t bad, though I’m not sure what I was expecting from the very funny duo, an R-rating, and Apatow producing. There’s a Pulp Fiction reference, a Snow album titled “Infant Sorrow,” and jokes about smuggling drugs through airport security… the hard way.
