BROTHER will be directed by Jesse Peretz, a former member of The Lemonheads who may be best known for directing music videos for Foo Fighters (the Mentos-inspired “Big Me”) and Nada Surf’s “Popular.” Peretz directed Rudd in the 2002 indie film THE CHATEAU and the two have remained friends since.
Rudd has DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS and HOW DO YOU KNOW? both set for release later this year. He sadly doesn’t have ANCHORMAN 2 on his to-do list anywhere. At least not yet. Filming on BROTHER is set to begin this July in New York City.
