Alexandra Daddario (San Andreas, True Detective) has signed on to star in The Layover with Kate Upton, Kal Penn, Rob Corddry, Matt Jones, and Matt Barr. William H. Macy is directing the sex comedy from a script by It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia‘s David Hornsby and Lance Krall.
“It was a lucky day for us when Alexandra said yes to The Layover. She’s a wonderful actor, a great comedian, the consummate professional. And it doesn’t hurt that she’s stunningly beautiful,” said Macy.
“Adding a talent such as Alexandra to this terrific cast was a brilliant move and frankly the perfect one in that I can’t think of any other young actor with her combination of talent, beauty, and comedic chops,” said producers Keith Kjarval of Unified Pictures and Aaron L. Gilbert of Bron Studios.
The Plot: Daddario and Upton will play a pair of lifelong best friends who decide to avoid their problems by taking a vacation only to find that their plane has been rerouted due to a hurricane warning. To make matters worse, the two friends find themselves in a hilarious battle for the same guy during an extended layover in St. Louis.
