Adrien Brody and Michael Chiklis have joined Parallel Media's indie comedy "High School," which Parallel Zide is producing.
John Stalberg Jr. is directing from the screenplay he wrote with Stephen Susco ("The Grudge," "The Grudge 2")
Susco also wrote "Red" starring Brian Cox where Cox took the Best Actor at the SITGES awards.
Production will start Nov. 8 in Detroit.
Story focuses on a high school valedictorian who, after getting high with the school stoner, is up for a drug test and hatches a scheme to get the entire school stoned so he can beat the test. Apparently, Chiklis will play the school's principal and Brody will play the drug dealer.
Brody was last in Wes Anderson's "The Darjeeling Limited" with Owen Wilson and Jason Schwartzman.
