What happens

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is a 2016 American romantic comedy film directed by Jake Szymanski and written by Andrew Jay Cohen and Brendan O'Brien. The film stars Zac Efron and Adam DeVine as the title characters, two brothers who advertise for dates to their sister's wedding. The film features Anna Kendrick and Aubrey Plaza as the women who answer the ad. The film is based on an actual news event of a Craigslist ad placed by two brothers who wanted dates for their cousin's wedding. The event became popular in February 2013, and the brothers then turned the situation into a book, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates: And a Thousand Cocktails. The film premiered in Los Angeles on June 30, 2016, and was theatrically released on July 8, 2016, by 20th Century Fox. It received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $77.1 million worldwide against a $33–35 million budget. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
