Daniels Challenges A Mama's Boy
Starring in the Jon Heder comedy

13 April 2006  |  Written by   |  Source: Variety


Can you imagine a man as easygoing as Jeff Daniels shacking up with your mother and booting you out of your home? We can’t either, but Jon Heder can.

Daniels – last seen in The Squid & The Whale – will co-star in Mama’s Boy, the previously announced comedy featuring Heder as a slacker still living with mother Diane Keaton. When her new boyfriend,  self-help guru (Daniels) moves in, Heder’s character is forced into open warfare to stay where he is.

Tim Hamilton’s directing from a script by Saving Silverman’s Hank Nelken.

Your Comments

Acht, it's the only half-decent comeback I could think of. This film does sound crap though doesn't it, yet, it will do well in the box office. It's this kind of tripe that forces me to leave silly comments & seriously, I feel revived afterwards. Slacker movies died with the 90's. More
