"Get Him to the Greek" (2010)

The scoop on "Get Him to the Greek" including photos, "Get Him to the Greek" trailer, interviews, news, and cast list for this comedy starring Russell Brand, Jonah Hill, and Rose Byrne.

Synopsis: Aaron Green (Jonah Hill) gets things done. The ambitious 23-year-old has exaggerated his way into a dream job just in time for a career-making assignment. His mission: Fly to London and escort a rock god to L.A.'s Greek Theatre for the first-stop on a $100-million tour. His warning: Turn your back on him at your own peril. British rocker Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) is both a brilliant musician and walking sex. Weary of yes men and piles of money, the former front man is searching for the meaning of life. But that doesn't mean he can't have a few orgies while he finds it.

When he learns his true love is in California, Aldous makes it his quest to win her back...right before kick-starting his world domination. As the countdown to the concert begins, one intern must navigate a minefield of London drug smuggles, New York City brawls and Vegas lap dances to deliver his charge safe and, sort of, sound. He may have to coax, lie to, enable and party with Aldous, but Aaron will get him to the Greek.

"Get Him to the Greek" Review

"Get Him to the Greek" is the funniest film of 2010 by a long-shot. Delivering the most fun I've had in a theater this year, this R-rated raunchy, wacky spin-off from 2008's "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" is loaded with jokes that connect, it's fast-paced, and even has a bit of heart to it (it is a Judd Apatow production after all).

Russell Brand Rocks Out in "Get Him to the Greek"

At the LA press day for the Universal Pictures film, Russell Brand said he wouldn't be surprised if somewhere down the line there's another Aldous Snow film. "This character keeps resurfacing like a corpse abandoned in the Thames," joked Brand. "We will never be free of it, never, unless we tie concrete to his ankles and abandon him in some deeper body of water.

Jonah Hill Gets Wild in "Get Him to the Greek"

At the LA press day for the Universal Pictures comedy written and directed by Nicholas Stoller, Jonah Hill said it was great getting back together with Brand for another wild comedy. "I really respect Russell as a talented comedian and actor, and also as a person. I think he’s great," said Hill. "It was fun to get to work with him again."
