From the genius who brought us the movies Knocked Up and Superbad, along with two awesome, underrated TV shows Freaks and Geeks, and Undeclared, comes Drillbit Taylor.
The Judd Apatow movie centers around some poor high school geeks who enlist the help of Owen Wilson to help stop their torment. It’s not out until March 21st, 2008, but I figure you’d like to see the preview now.
The fact that it’s made by Apatow is all I need to know. It’s funny how some of these writers/producers get on a roll and everything they touch is gold. Like J.J. Abrams with Alias and then Lost, Apatow is doing the same thing with his roster of successful comedies. Although Drillbit Taylor appears to be written in part by Seth Rogan and Apatow is only producing.
Watch the trailer after the jump.
