EXCLUSIVE: Eli Craig has been set to rewrite and direct Your Bridesmaid’s A Bitch, a comedy that Circle of Confusion is producing with David Ellison’s Skydance. Skydance will finance the film. The comedy revolves around a groomsman who faces off against a bridesmaid who is an ex-girlfriend. The script was originally written by Brian Duffield.
Craig made his feature directing debut on Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil, which he wrote with Morgan Jurgenson. He’s repped by CAA and managed by Stephanie Davis at Wet Dog Entertainment.


Eli’s a good dude.
Agreed.
The sheer banality of this project is beneath him. $$$$$
Hope he gets paid, the movie never gets made, and he finds something closer to TUCKER…
Tucker and dale was the funniest flick I’d seen in a long time. Will def check this out. Just the title is funny.
I believe Peter Craig is his brother and if that’s the case his mom is Sally Field. Quite a talented family.
It’s a funny script. Will they film it in Harrisburg, PA where it’s set?
Tucker & Dale was the funniest movie I’ve seen in quite a while. Will definitely try to see this somehow.
Excited for this- Tucker & Dale was hilarious and the version of the “Your Bridesmaids” script I read was excellent if just a little saggy. Hopefully, if he tightens the structure in the re-write, this film will turn out well
Bridesmaid script was terrible. The protagonist’s “goal” is to “survive” a wedding at which his ex is a bridesmaid. In other words, there is no real goal. Boring and talky tripe.
He’s got his work cut out for him, That script needs a lot of work
This is such an amazing script, I honestly can’t believe it took this long to get going – this WILL be a huge rom com for the 20-something generation. Duffield is incredible! He’s going to blow up now, as he rightfully should.
re “a huge rom com for the 20-something generation”…
Ignorance really is bliss!
Anyone who doesn’t know about Brian Duffield is an idiot, the guy is so talented. I agree with above completely. I haven’t read anything in the last two years that even touches Duffield’s unique style. He’s the man. Such a great, fresh, new voice.
Great. Another piece of misogynistic shit to add to the pile. You’d think I ‘d be used to it by now, but funny enough I’m still surprised when any film by this title actually gets produced.
Oh, FUCK yes! About time this finally got going.
Nice of Mr Duffields family to weigh in. Unique voice? Come on. Only unique in that somehow this script sold when the thousands of other mediocre at best scripts out the did not. Sorry folks, he ain’t blowin’ up
sorry your script didn’t sell bro.
Duffield’s script was great. He captured that sick feeling only an ex can stick you with in that very human Apatow way. Let this be great.
The script is awful. We who read it know. Come on, be honest! All other comments on here are friends, family, the writers themselves.
Good luck.
Thanks a lot.
Again: “sorry your script didn’t sell bro.”
Waste your negative comments somewhere else.
