The producers who took audiences
on a 'Road Trip' and back to 'Old School' now invite you
on a wild 'Eurotrip.'
Have you ever pressed 'Send' on an email and immediately
wished you could get it back? Scotty Thomas (Scott Mechlowicz)
and his Berlin-based computer pen pal Mieke (Jessica Boehrs)
have been writing each other for years, sharing every detail
of their lives. When Mieke makes a cyber pass at Scotty,
he completely freaks out, thinking that this guy he's known
for years is coming on to him - in German no less. Too bad
the one detail Scotty doesn't seem to know is that, in Germany,
Mieke is a girl's name.
By the time Scotty figures out that Mieke is a girl, and
a hot one at that, Mieke has cut off her email account and
all contact with him. Thinking that this might be his one
chance at true love, even though he's never actually met
the girl - Scotty and his best friends, Cooper (Jacob Pitts)
and the twins Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg) and Jamie (Travis
Wester), embark on a raucous trip across Europe headed for
Berlin.
Their trek takes them from London to Paris to Amsterdam
and Eastern Europe, exposing them - literally - to every
lascivious, larcenous and lecherous indulgence Europe has
to offer, in a comedy that gives new meaning to the phrase
'foreign relations.'
From The Montecito Picture Company, 'Eurotrip' was directed
by first-timer Jeff Schaffer from a screenplay that he co-wrote
with his longtime writing partners Alec Berg and David Mandel.
The trio most recently adapted Dr. Seuss' 'The Cat in the
Hat.' Daniel Goldberg, Jackie Marcus, Alec Berg and David
Mandel are producing the film, with Ivan Reitman, Tom Pollock
and Joe Medjuck serving as executive producers.
The film stars Scott Mechlowicz, Michelle Trachtenberg,
Jacob Pitts, Travis Wester and Jessica Boehrs, and features
cameo appearances by Lucy Lawless and Vinnie Jones, among
others.
