Jennifer Aniston Joins Raunchy R-Rated Flick & Justin Theroux Project



Jennifer Aniston is circling We’re The Millers, the New Line comedy about a pot dealer who pulls together a fake wife and two kids to pose as an RV road-tripping family so that he can smuggle 1000 pounds of pot cross country. Dodgeball‘s Rawson Thurber is directing. Aniston is in talks to play the fake wife, who’s actually a hooker. Her Horrible Bosses costar Jason Sudeikis is eyeing the role of the family matriarch (he’s the pot smuggler). The kids are juvenile delinquents. The raunchy comedy, described as a “warped Vacation,” has a script by Wedding Crashers scribes Bob Fisher & Steve Faber, and the film’s produced by David Heyman, Happy Walters, Vince Newman and Tucker Tooley, with Benderspink exec producing. Aniston is coming off Wanderlust, and she’s repped by CAA and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.

She is separately attached to star in an an untitled comic heist thriller written and to be directed by Justin Theroux. Aniston, Theroux and Jerry Weintraub are producers. Aniston and Theroux became a couple after they worked together on Wanderlust.

i'm glad she's been taking so many R-rated film roles lately. between these two movies and the other two she joined she's been changing it up a little. also, all these film projects should put those pregnancy rumours to rest.

surviving_joke 9th-Apr-2012 11:45 pm (UTC)

She was the best part of Horrible Bosses. She's a really funny woman, just never really picks the best material, but I think she will do well with all those R-rated comedies.

wanderlust was horrible and bombed..hard.this will be only a hit if it has a solid cast, we all know she cant carry a movie.
odd_predicament 9th-Apr-2012 11:29 pm (UTC)
I know everyone hates him, but I think later seasons Ross is the best. One of my favorite episodes is "The One Where Ross Is Fine."
appleweiland 9th-Apr-2012 11:31 pm (UTC)
YES! So good!
mrsarigold 9th-Apr-2012 11:34 pm (UTC)
IA!
flyingpigs_live 9th-Apr-2012 11:35 pm (UTC)
I love Ross too....when he wasn't pining/mooning over or being possessive of Rachel. They were terrible together.

Chandler is my king, though.
lostinshalott 9th-Apr-2012 11:39 pm (UTC)
YES OMG YES later ross is so funny

appleweiland 9th-Apr-2012 11:30 pm (UTC)
Phoebe and Ross were clearly the best. Chandler was a dinkus.

And same. I will watch anything Aniston does because of how much I loved her as Rachel.
eilujspark 10th-Jun-2012 10:21 pm (UTC)
Fail.

Chandler was the best.
glas_smaragaide 9th-Apr-2012 11:31 pm (UTC)
I liked Friends....but I found Rachel just as whingy and annoying as Ross

Sad that it just shows what a limited actress she is if she can only play one character her whole life.
sobe_sf 10th-Apr-2012 12:58 am (UTC)
Yeah, it kinda sucks that their breakup got reduced to "We were on a break!" because it totally makes everyone forget what an absolute dick he was to her before she asked for the break.

belkisa 10th-Apr-2012 12:48 am (UTC)
Rachel was my favorite and I will always like Jennifer, because of Friends and I always enjoy her movies. Joey was my second favorite.
londonaster 10th-Apr-2012 03:39 am (UTC)
lol your icon is my favorite "How you doin?"

"Ross don't let her drink anymore!"
belkisa 10th-Apr-2012 09:07 am (UTC)
ty :)

Derailed was amazing

Her talent or likability aside -- if her films don't make money how does she continue getting big roles?
robertsbox_xo 9th-Apr-2012 11:30 pm (UTC)
her films DO make money, that's a common misconception about her. her films make a profit 99% of the time. sure, she's had bombs, but everyone in hollywood has.
likegunfire 9th-Apr-2012 11:32 pm (UTC)
for some reason her movies do well
horrible bosses grossed almost 6x its budget
glas_smaragaide 9th-Apr-2012 11:35 pm (UTC)
But that wasn't really a 'jen aniston' film where she was the main star, would you say? More of an ensemble cast? She was a supporting role. I have to say it was one of the best things I've seen her in.
robertsbox_xo 10th-Apr-2012 12:09 am (UTC)
her other movies have all done well too tho, horrible bosses was just her most recent hit

like the bounty hunter made 3x its budget or something too
tankmachine 9th-Apr-2012 11:32 pm (UTC)
is she's anywhere as good in this as she is in Horrible Bosses then sign me up tbh
gee_whilaker 9th-Apr-2012 11:32 pm (UTC)
matriarch?
reginageorge 9th-Apr-2012 11:33 pm (UTC)
can they get married so she can be happy forever ty.
flyingpigs_live 9th-Apr-2012 11:36 pm (UTC)
I'd see this. ilh
alkalinecupcake 9th-Apr-2012 11:38 pm (UTC)
i will watch it. i love her.

now i'm watching Friends, season 9...
chrislola 10th-Apr-2012 12:09 am (UTC)
Yeah, I can't really understand why I kind of like her either. I never even watched friends!
mari_lyn00 10th-Apr-2012 01:16 am (UTC)
she's really non-threatening and seems like a chill as person, i think that's why most people like her.
bnlmaroonvwbug 9th-Apr-2012 11:40 pm (UTC)
i remember years ago when steve buscemi was attached to this as the lead at one point. but that had to be back in 2002-2007
lostinshalott 9th-Apr-2012 11:40 pm (UTC)
Not sure about this but glad to see her doing stuff!
killbot 9th-Apr-2012 11:44 pm (UTC)
here for Justin Theroux
bedtimestories 9th-Apr-2012 11:47 pm (UTC)
cute picture!
flaca 9th-Apr-2012 11:54 pm (UTC)
i'm surprised they're still together, but i hope they make it.

it also took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out he was Justin on Parks and Rec, lol.
black_swan87 9th-Apr-2012 11:54 pm (UTC)
everyone gives her a lot of shit, but i would love to have jennifer aniston's life
wahootrollop 10th-Apr-2012 12:09 am (UTC)
I can't shake the feeling that he is just using her for his own career
jazzypom Theroux is supposedly well regarded in H'wood though10th-Apr-2012 11:32 am (UTC)
He's a solid screenwriter (did the screenplays for Tropic Thunder and Iron Man 2). I was surprised to see him wanting to venture in front of the camera.
monicajulie 10th-Apr-2012 12:30 am (UTC)
I love that picture.
princess72385 10th-Apr-2012 12:35 am (UTC)
Dear Source:
Matriarch is a woman and Jason Sudeikis would make a really ugly woman. Here's hoping you just don't own a dictionary...

a pot dealer who pulls together a fake wife and two kids to pose as an RV road-tripping family so that he can smuggle 1000 pounds of pot cross country.

isn't this kind of 'just go with it' + pot - brooklyn decker?
