Poster: How to Lose Friends & Alienate People

Thanks to MTV’s Movies Blog, we’ve got the brand new poster for Simon Pegg’s new comedy How to Lose Friends & Alienate People. Alongside of Pegg will be Jeff Bridges, Kirsten Dunst and Megan Fox. As if just having those last two ladies alone wasn’t enough to put me in a seat in the theater, the film is also dubbing itself “The most hilarious comedy of the year.” I know I’m interested. Read the plot and check out the poster below. Let us know how you feel about this film.

British writer Sidney Young (Simon Pegg), who despises the world of celebrity, leads efforts on an alternative magazine, Post Modern Review, that mocks the media attention paid to these stars. When Young is offered a job by Clayton Harding (Jeff Bridges) at conservative New York based Sharps magazine, he begins his ascent to success. Starting as an outsider, he makes a gradual movement from his former world, soon becoming the confidante of starlet Sophie Maes (Megan Fox) and beginning a relationship with colleague Alison Olsen (Kirsten Dunst). Eleanor Johnson (Gillian Anderson) is the power-hungry publicist pulling all the strings. The events unfolding in Young’s life now will either break him or make him.
How to Lose Friends & Alienate People is set to open on October 3rd. It’s being directed by Robert B. Weide, who has previously done a bit of directing work on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Writing credits go to Toby Young and Peter Straughan.
