Brendan O'Brien

Since breaking out with their 2014 hit comedy Neighbors, writers Andrew J. Cohen and Brendan O’Brien have been understandably busy. Up next is their new comedy, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, which reunites them with Neighbors star Zac Efron. In addition to that film, the pair are also working on The House, which plays in the same rowdy suburban territory as Neighbors, and has attracted the interest of comedy king Will Ferrell.

One of the best comedies of the year was 'Neighbors,' the Nicholas Stoller film starring Seth Rogen as a suburban father battling it out with the frat bros next door. And now the guys who penned the screenplay for that film are set to follow in the footsteps of Rogen himself, making their directorial debut with 'Thrill Ride,' a horror comedy about a theme park slasher.
