The Inbetweeners Take On Hollywood…And Win!

Finally getting to the end of my bulk emails (over 700 inbox) I amazingly got today and received this press release about The Inbetweeners the cult tv channel 4 comedy show. The movie isn’t officially released until today butafter 2 preview days the movie version has actually took in a amazing  £2.5million ($4million) which in British standards is fantastic what’s even more amazing about that figure there was no press screenings so the movie has lived of the reputation of the tv series.Its a great send off  for the series achieving what some so called American popular as well as other British shows that had a bigger popularity, actually getting a film made for the cinema.

The Inbetweeners movie sees the lads now finally finished school  and decide to celebrate their new freedom by jetting off to the party island of  Crete Greece to Malia but even the best laid out plans never work. The Inbetweeners Movie stars Simon Bird, James Buckley, Blake Harrison, Joe Thomas, Emily Head, Belinda Stewart-Wilson and Greg Davies. 

Check out the official press release along with the trailer below, Playerzzz!

Will (Simon Bird), Simon (Joe Thomas), Jay (James Buckley) and Neil (Blake Harrison), have finished school forever, and are off on their first lads’ holiday. They’ve got two weeks in Malia with no parents, no teachers, no money, and little chance with the ladies.

From the creative minds that brought you the award winning TV show (creators & writers Damon Beesley and Iain Morris; producer Christopher Young and director Ben Palmer), the boys are joined on the big screen by Emily Head, Belinda Stewart-Wilson, and Greg Davies.  The film introduces Lydia Rose Bewley, Laura Haddock, Jessica Knappett, and Tamla Kari.

Join them in cinemas everywhere as they continue their outrageous adventures on the big screen.

This summer four boys become men.
