Russell Brand Gets us ‘to the Greek’ First Look

Jonah Hill and Russell Brand in Forgetting Sarah Marshall

MTV followed Russell Brand and Jonah Hill through the Las Vegas set of Universal Pictures’ Get Him to the Greek, the spin-off of Forgetting Sarah Marshall.  This new film from Apatow Productions follows Hill playing a record label intern assigned to making sure Aldous Snow (Brand’s character from Sarah Marshall.)

In MTV’s footage, it’s revealed that Hill’s boss is played by noneother than Sean P. Diddy Combs.  This is unexpected, but according to Judd Apatow, Diddy brings the funny:

• He’s playing the owner of a record company. And he’s funny enough that it’s bothersome. You want to feel like you’re better than Diddy at something, but then when he’s super funny, you’re like, “Okay, he defeats me in all areas of life.”

Get Him to the Greek, directed by Nicholas Stoller, is filming now and is scheduled to hit theaters in 2010.
