FILM

Mike Karz (C ’89, W ’89) is currently filming Blended, a film starring Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler. He’s on location in South Africa and the film is set for release Memorial Day 2014. Let’s all hope he comes back to the USA with a delightful South African accent.

Karz on location

Scott Neustadter (C ’98) and writing partner Michael H. Weber have just signed on with MGM to pen the film adaptation of novelist Jojo Moyes’ Me Before You. The story is about a young woman who is hired to take care of a paralyzed man in London. Brilliant!

He’s the shawty on the right

Jon Hurwitz (W ’00) was responsible for getting Harold and Kumar to White Castle. Now, he’s working on a new comedy with Seth Rogen’s Point Grey team about three girls vowing to lose their virginity on prom night. If only we all could have been so experienced at that age. P.S. Thanks for the Twitter follow, Jon! You’re a swell guy.
