You may have seen that Trivial Pursuits has been filming around Ann Arbor this month. They will be shooting on campus on Saturday and Sunday August 29th and 30th and need 200 extras to play students in a lecture hall scene. Written and directed by U-M alumnus, Chris Farah, the movie tells the story of a U-M teaching assistant, Paul -- played by Christopher Gorham (Ugly Betty), son of a prominent professor -- played by our own Professor Ralph Williams. Paul is struggling to form his professional identity in the shadow of his very popular father. As he studies for his doctoral exams, Paul lets off steam by playing in pub trivia competitions, and meets undergraduate student, Naomi -- played by Arielle Kebbel (John Tucker Must Die). Kip Pardue (Remember the Titans) and Chris Parnell (Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock) also star in this comedy that spotlights Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan.
