Steve Carell’s Crazy, Stupid, Love has a summer release

0

Warner Brothers has a pretty good slate coming up for next summer. I will see Green Lantern at least thrice, I’ll be there opening night for The Hangover part II, and for better or for worse, I will watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows as it marches to its magic-laden conclusion. Now, Warner Brothers has added another film to the mix for me to throw my money at.

Crazy, Stupid, Love, due out on July 29th, 2011, stars the inimitable Steve Carell (The Office), the lovely Emma Stone (Easy A), Ryan Gosling (Blue Valentine), Julianne Moore (The Kids Are All Right), Marisa Tomei (Cyrus) and the one and only Kevin Bacon, and it sounds like it will be pretty funny. Check out the synopsis after the jump.

Carell leads the cast as straight-laced, fortysomething Cal Weaver, who is living the dream—good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart.  But when Cal learns that his wife, Emily (Julianne Moore), has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his perfect life quickly unravels.  Worse, in today’s single world, Cal, who hasn’t dated in decades, stands out as the epitome of un-smooth.  Now spending his free evenings sulking alone at a local bar, the hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protégé to handsome, thirtysomething player Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gosling).  In an effort to help Cal get over his wife and start living his life, Jacob opens Cal’s eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style that can’t be found at Supercuts or The Gap.  But despite Cal’s makeover and his many new conquests, the one thing that can’t be made over is his heart, which seems to keep leading him back to where he began.

I love Steve Carell, I love Emma Stone, and the rest of the cast are all incredibly talented. I look forward to beating the heat this summer with Crazy, Stupid, Love.
