April 13, 2012 --Wedding Crashers co-stars Vince Vaughn (Fred Claus) and Owen Wilson (Marley & Me) will reteam for The Internship with A Night at the Museum director Shawn Levy at the helm. The film is about two middle-age salesmen who find themselves unemployed in a job market that's completely changed since they started their careers...so the two get internships at a digital company to learn about the tech world. Vaughn wrote the script and will produce through his Wild West Picture Show Productions. Levy, who usually does comedies like Date Night but recently showed his mettle (and metal) in Real Steel, will also produce through his 21 Laps production company. Assumably, The Internship is set with 20th Century Fox where Levy has a first-look deal.
