Wedding Crashers is one of my favorite movies of all time. I was super excited to hear that Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson would be teaming up again for The Internship. Vaughn wrote the script and Shawn Levy (Real Steel) will direct. The movie is about two aging salesmen who find it hard to keep up with the digital world and end up going out of business. In an attempt to reinvent themselves, they both get internships at a major tech company. Sounds flippin’ hilarious. I can picture it all.
Production is set to start on June 25, 2012.
