FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEW LINE CINEMA’S “WE’RE
THE MILLERS” DRIVES PAST $200 MILLION
AT THE WORLDWIDE BOX OFFICE
BURBANK, CA – September
18, 2013 – Continuing its successful run at the box office, New
Line Cinema’s smash hit comedy “We’re the Millers” has surpassed $200 million
at the worldwide box office. The
announcement was made by Dan Fellman, President, Domestic Distribution, and Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, President, International
Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures. The
film has grossed an estimated $206 million globally, and still climbing.
“We’re the Millers” has taken in an estimated $132.6 million
domestically and is still going strong.
Internationally, the film has grossed $73.4 million, opening at #1 in
key European markets such as Germany
and breaking records in Russia,
where it has become the highest grossing R-rated comedy of all time. Major markets set to release in the coming
weeks include Spain,
France
and Brazil.
Fellman stated, “‘We’re the Millers’ has demonstrated
terrific playability from coast to coast, and the phenomenal word of mouth has
kept the weekly drops notably low and the attendance consistently high. We congratulate our partners at New Line, as
well as director Rawson Marshall Thurber and the terrific cast, led by the
tremendously talented Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston.”
Kwan Vandenberg
noted, “The international rollout has been fantastic, with number one openings
and powerful holds. International audiences have responded in a big way
to the film’s outrageous humor, and the chemistry of Jennifer
and Jason and the entire cast. We join
New Line in congratulating Rawson and his cast and crew on crossing this
exciting benchmark.”
From New Line Cinema comes the action comedy “We’re the
Millers,” starring Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis under the direction of
Rawson Marshall Thurber.
David Clark (Sudeikis) is a small-time pot dealer whose
clientele includes chefs and soccer moms, but no kids—after all, he has his
scruples. So what could go wrong? Plenty.
Preferring to keep a low profile for obvious reasons, he learns the hard
way that no good deed goes unpunished when he tries to help out some local
teens and winds up getting jumped by a trio of gutter punks. Stealing his stash and his cash, they leave
him in major debt to his supplier, Brad (Ed Helms).
In order to wipe the slate clean—and maintain a clean bill of
health—David must now become a big-time drug smuggler by bringing Brad’s latest
shipment in from Mexico. Twisting the arms of his neighbors, cynical
stripper Rose (Aniston) and wannabe customer Kenny (Will Poulter), as well as
streetwise teen Casey (Emma Roberts), he devises a foolproof plan. One fake wife, two pretend kids and a huge, shiny
RV later, the “Millers” are headed south of the border for a Fourth of July
weekend that is sure to end with a bang.
The film also stars Emma Roberts, Nick Offerman, Kathryn
Hahn, Will Poulter and Ed Helms.
Thurber directed “We’re the Millers” from a screenplay by Bob
Fisher & Steve Faber and Sean Anders & John Morris, story by Fisher
& Faber. Vincent Newman, Tucker
Tooley, Happy Walters and Chris Bender produced, with David
Heyman, J.C. Spink, Marcus Viscidi, Toby Emmerich, Richard
Brener and David Neustadter serving as executive producers.
Thurber’s behind-the-scenes creative team included director
of photography Barry Peterson; production designer Clayton Hartley; editor Mike
Sale; and costume designer Shay Cunliffe.
The music is by Theodore Shapiro and Ludwig Goransson.
New Line Cinema presents a Newman/Tooley Films, Slap Happy
Productions/Heyday Films and Benderspink production, “We’re the Millers.” The film is distributed worldwide by Warner
Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
