CULVER CITY, CALIF. (Sept. 30, 2013) – Easy A meets Superbad in the raunchy and irreverent comedy THE TO DO LIST, available Nov. 19th on Blu-ray™, DVD and digital from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. The film is written and directed by Funny or Die veteran Maggie Carey and features an ensemble cast, including Aubrey Plaza (Safety Not Guaranteed, TV’s “Parks and Recreation”), Johnny Simmons (The Perks of Being a Wallflower), Bill Hader (TV’s “SNL”), Alia Shawkat (TV’s “Arrested Development”), Scott Porter (TV’s “The Good Wife”), Rachel Bilson (TV’s “Hart of Dixie”), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Kick Ass 2), Andy Samberg (Grown Ups 2), Donald Glover (TV’s “Community”), Connie Britton (TV’s “Nashville”) and Clark Gregg (The Avengers, Iron Man). In this all-star film, Type A overachiever (Plaza) comes up with a “to do list,” featuring all the risqué extra-curricular activities she missed out on in high school and wants to complete before starting college. Hilarious bonus features on both the Blu-ray and DVD include deleted scenes, commentary, a gag reel, a.k.a. “The Re-do List,” as well as two featurettes. The “Maggie Carey: Directing her To-Do List” featurette highlights the director’s personal connection to the film and the comedic talent starring in it, and the “Dirty Mouth” featurette is a big, raunchy montage of some of the film’s key moments.
Synopsis:
Class of ‘93 valedictorian Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) wants to get “educated” before she goes off to college, so she assembles a “to do list” of all the sexual activities she missed out on in high school. Quickly realizing that she’s way out of her league, Brandy solicits her best friends, older sister (Rachel Bilson) and burnt-out boss (Bill Hader) for their help and advice. As Brandy crams for her sexual finals, a supporting cast of horny misfits— an orally-challenged classmate (Donald Glover), a grunge-singing doofus (Andy Samberg) — eagerly offer their assistance and shocking mayhem ensues…
