Behind the Scenes - Get Him to the Greek [Jonah Hill, P. Diddy and Russell Brand]

Get Him to the Greek reunites JONAH HILL and RUSSELL BRAND with Forgetting Sarah Marshall director NICHOLAS STOLLER in the story of a young record company executive with three days to drag an uncooperative rock legend to Hollywood for a comeback concert. The comedy is the latest film from hit producer JUDD APATOW (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Funny People).
Aaron Green (Hill) gets things done. The ambitious 24-year-old has been given a career-making assignment. His mission: Fly to London and escort a rock god to the world famous Greek Theatre in Los Angeles for a huge comeback concert. His record mogul boss, Sergio Roma (SEAN COMBS of Monsters Ball, televisions A Raisin in the Sun), gives him one warning: The artist is the worst person on Earth. Turn your back on him at your own peril.
British rocker Aldous Snow (Brand) is a brilliant musician and certifiable rock-n-roll legend, but due to a bad break-up and nose-diving career, has fallen off the wagon and is now a walking disaster. Weary of yes men and scared hes entered the greatest hits twilight of his career, Snows in the midst of a nihilistic downward spiral. When he learns his true love, model/pop star Jackie Q (ROSE BYRNE of televisions Damages, Knowing), is in Los Angeles, Aldous makes it his quest to win her backright before kick-starting his return to world domination.
As the countdown to the concert begins, one innocent young man must navigate a minefield of London drug smuggles, Manhattan mayhem and Vegas debauchery to deliver his charge safe and, sort of, soundall while trying to remain faithful to his girlfriend, Daphne (ELISABETH MOSS of televisions Mad Men, Did You Hear About the Morgans?). He may have to coax, lie to, enable and party with Aldous, and Aaron may get inebriated, titillated, violated, humiliated, incapacitated, irritated, evacuated, medicated and rejuvenated on the waybut Aaron will get him to the Greek.
