First Trailer Arrives For Comedy ‘Date And Switch’

Although currently filming the silver screen adaptation of 50 SHADES OF GREY, Dakota Johnson has found time to star in questionable teen comedy DATE AND SWITCH.

Johnson co-stars alongside Nicholas Braun (10 Things I Hate About You), Hunter Cope (APRIL APOCALYPSE), Sarah Hyland (Modern Family), Nick Offerman (Parks And Recreation), Megan Mullally (Will And Grace), Gary Cole (Family Guy), Wendi McLendon-Covey (BRIDESMAIDS) and Brian Geraghty (THE HURT LOCKER), with Braun and Cope playing best friends trying to help each other lose their virginity before prom. However, when Cope comes out as gay, their quest becomes even more of a challenge.

Although it’s great to see the teen comedy/sex comedy genre subverted, the trailer doesn’t really make the film look…funny. What I also don’t understand is the fact that two of the main cast members (Johnson and Braun) are clearly not teenagers (24 and 25, respectively). Why not cast actual teenage actors? Who knows!

Directed by Chris Nelson (ASS BACKWARDS), DATE AND SWITCH will arrive in US cinemas from 14th February 2014, with no word as-of-yet of a UK release.
