We gave THR the scoop so we could get great placement, but the official announcement I have been talking about for months and months is finally here:
There is going to be a Tucker Max movie.
It's going to be called I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell.
The script was written by me and Nils Parker.
It's a fictional story, but is based very heavily on the true stories from the book and website.
There are three male leads, one that is based on me (Tucker Max), one that's based on SlingBlade, and one that is a combination of PWJ, El Bingeroso, and Golden Boy. An actor is going to play the character based on me, but his name in the movie will be Tucker Max.
I have already started a blog about the movie, and have a ton of posts about what we've done so far. The archive is here, just start at the bottom and read up.
Sadly, it's not all good news:
Bad News #1 - Assholes Finish First delayed:
The release date of Assholes Finish First was originally fall 2008. I have pushed it back a year so it will coincide with the movie release.
Bad News #2 - This site won't be updated with new stories until the movie and the book come out:
The next year is going to be insanely hectic for me. Creating a feature film is no joke--it is a full time job and then some, so partying and what not has to take a back seat to my movie and book responsibilities, so I don't want anyone to check my site looking for new stories. There won't be any new ones until after both the book and the movie are out.
