The film stars Rudd as a guy who’s invited to a party by a host (Galifianakis) with an usual condition: everyone must bring the most pathetic loser of a guest they can find. Rudd finds Carell’s character who turns out to be more than anyone bargained for. Szostak will play Rudd’s girlfriend in the film. The project, a remake of a French film, has been in development for years and at one time had Sacha Baron Cohen attached to play the schmuck. Filming is set to begin this fall for a big July release next year.
