Sarah Wright Joined the Raunchy All-night Comedy 21 AND OVER
Kentucky native Sarah Wright aka Sarah Mason recently appeared in rom-com Made of Honor and started a recurring role in the Mad Love comedy series that premiered as a mid-season replacement in February, but that’s not important right now. What I meant to say is that Relativity Media officially announced that thesps Justin Chon of The Twilight Saga and Skylar Astin from Hamlet 2 will be joined by Sarah Wright to the core trio in the comedy 21 and Over.
Furthermore, Miles Teller will follow Footloose remake with Hangover-esque comedy 21 and Over from The Hangover scribes Jon Lucas and Scott Moore who will helm the film. Teller was cast in the lead role, back in May.
The 21 and Over plot follows two youth friends drag their salt-of-the-earth-buddy out to celebrate his twenty-first birthday the night before a medical school interview. But when one cold beer unavoidably leads to another and another, the evening escalates into a wild epic calamity of wickedness and disorder that none of them will ever forget.
Production is due to start August 2011 in Washington with a release sometimes in 2012.

Relativity Media will release the hilarious comedy in which two childhood friends drag their straight-arrow buddy out to celebrate his twenty-first birthday the night before an all-important medical school interview.
