Ben Marshall, John Higgins and Martin Herlihy – the SNL breakouts known as comedy trio Please Don’t Destroy – are set for a buddy comedy feature at Universal Pictures.
Marshall, Higgins and Herlihy will write and star in the movie, which centers on three childhood friends who live and work together. When they decide they don’t like their life trajectory, they set off to find a gold treasure that is rumored to be buried in a nearby mountain.
Additional cast is expected to be announced in the coming weeks and shooting is already underway in North Carolina with Paul Briganti directing. Judd Apatow is producing the yet-to-be-titled film and the plan is to release the movie in cinemas on August 18th 2023.
Please Don’t Destroy were hired as writers on the 47th season of “SNL” and tasked with creating digital shorts which resulted in the likes of “Three Sad Virgins,” “Good Variant” and “Hard Seltzer”.
