From the comedy troupe that brought you “Super Troopers,” “Club Dread,” and “Beerfest,” Broken Lizard is back with a brand new comedy about the restaurant industry!
From Anchor Bay Entertainment, “Slammin’ Salmon” is about “Slammin” Cleon Salmon (Michael Clarke Duncan), a former Heavyweight Champion of the World turned celebrity owner of a high end Miami seafood restaurant, The Slammin’ Salmon.
A terrifying bull of a man, Salmon uses fear to rule over his misfit waitstaff (Broken Lizard’s Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske, as well as Cobie Smulders and April Bowlby) and on this particular night, he takes his bullying skills to a new level. In an effort to pay off a gambling debt to the Japanese Yakuza, Salmon sets up a contest to ‘inspire’ his waitstaff to sell more food than they ever have before: the top selling server wins $10,000 while the waiter in last place gets served with a broken rib sandwich-courtesy of the Champ himself.
“Slammin’ Salmon” is directed by Broken Lizard member and first-time director Kevin Heffernan. It stars Michael Clarke Duncan, Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske, Cobie Smulders, April Bowlby, Sendhil Ramamurthy, Lance Henriksen, Olivia Munn with Vivica A. Fox and Morgan Fairchild.
Yes, you read that right, everyone’s favorite G4 hottie, Olivia Munn. “Slamin’ Salomon” hits theaters this December 11th.
