CBS Films announced a few more additions to the ensemble comedy Get a Job today. Community star Alison Brie, Nicholas Braun (Red State), Brandon T. Jackson (Tropic Thunder) and Jay Pharoah (Saturday Night Live) have been added to a cast that includes Bryan Cranston, Anna Kendrick, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and Miles Teller (Footloose). The multi-generational comedy centers on four recent college graduates “who discover that their lofty expectations and the realities of adulthood are two very different things.” Teller leads the cast as a guy who finds his true calling after struggling through an entry-level job, and Braun, Mintz-Plasse and Jackson will play Teller’s three friends who each find different careers. Brie will play “one of the group’s sharp-witted coworkers” and Pharoah plays a character that starts his own recession-proof business. Jesse Eisenberg had been looking to make a cameo role in the pic, but the press release (predictably) makes no mention of his involvement. Hit the jump for more, including the full press release.The premise of the comedy sounds like the film may have hints of Horrible Bosses, but director Dylan Kidd (Rodger Doger) says they’re making an “emotionally honest comedy.” I’m most excited to see Cranston stretch his comedic chops as Teller’s father, who’s hunting for a job at the same time as his son, but Brie is always a highlight of every project she appears in. Hit the jump to read the full press release. Production starts next week in Los Angeles.Here’s the full press release:
