its upcoming comedy "The Campaign" starring Will Ferrell and Zach
Galifianakis.
Directed by Jay Roach, "The Campaign" also stars Jason
Sudeikis, Dylan McDermott and Katherine LaNasa, with John Lithgow, Dan
Aykroyd and Brian Cox. The election comedy bows in the Philippines
this August.
In the film, when long-term congressman Cam Brady
(Ferrell) commits a major public gaffe before an upcoming election, a
pair of ultra-wealthy CEOs plot to put up a rival candidate and gain
influence over their North Carolina district. Their man: naïve Marty
Huggins (Galifianakis), director of the local Tourism Center.
At first, Marty appears to be the unlikeliest possible
choice but, with the help of his new benefactors' support, a cutthroat
campaign manager and his family's political connections, he soon
becomes a contender who gives the charismatic Cam plenty to worry
about.
As election day closes in, the two are locked in a dead
heat, with insults quickly escalating to injury until all they care
about is burying each other, in this mud-slinging, back-stabbing,
home-wrecking comedy that takes today's political circus to its
logical next level. Because even when you think campaign ethics have
hit rock bottom, there's room to dig a whole lot deeper.
"The Campaign" is distributed in the Philippines by
Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
