Rogen and Efron to co-star in raunchy frat comedy

Seth Rogen and Zac Efron are set to star in a raunchy new comedy in the vein of Animal House and Old School, Deadline reports.

Universal Pictures paid screenwriters Andrew Cohen and Brendan O’Brien seven-figures for their script; the studio is no doubt eager to recapture the success of their last American R-rated comedy Bridesmaids. 

According to Deadline, “Rogen plays a regular guy who lives near an alpha male fraternity house. Efron is a member of the fraternity, whose raucous behavior wreaks havoc on the other guy’s family life.

Rogen and collaborator Evan Goldberg will produce.
