HAMLET 2 will be available on DVD December 23, 2008.
HAMLET 2 stars such stage and screen notables as Phoebe Strole, Skylar Astin,Elisabeth Shue, Catherine Keener, Amy Poehler and Steve Coogan. “The hit, the very palpable hit” of the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, Hamlet 2 is an irreverent comedy centering on one teacher’s overzealous quest to mount a high school musical. The film is directed by Andrew Fleming (Dick, Threesome) from an original screenplay he wrote with Pam Brady (South Park: Bigger Longer & Uncut, Team America: World Police); the stars are Steve Coogan (Night at the Museum), Catherine Keener (The 40-Year-Old Virgin), David Arquette (the Scream movies), Amy Poehler (Saturday Night Live), and Academy Award nominee Elisabeth Shue as herself.Mr. Coogan portrays Dana Marschz; the last name is pronounced…oh, any attempt is close enough, really. Dana is a failed actor-turned-high school drama teacher. Shortchanged in the talent department, Dana Still harbors ambitions and passions. At work, that is; his personal life, with his dissatisfied wife Brie (Ms. Keener) and their boarder Gary (Mr. Arquette), leaves much to be desired.Videos
