Miley Cyrus is set to star in So Undercover [originally titled "I'm Like, Sooo Undercover"], a harrowing tale of an 18-year old girl who looks like she’s 15, playing a private investigator who infiltrates a college sorority in order to solve the case of the experimental friendship. And while I may have made that last part up, it would be the only saving grace of an otherwise unoriginal and annoying idea.
But Miley’s sleuth masterpiece has a cast now, as she’ll be joined by Mike O’Malley of Glee and that one show from CBS with that other forgettable comedian, and Jeremy Piven. O’Malley will play Miley’s father (Miley O’Malley… LO’L!) while Piven will play a guy who desperately needs to sit down with John Cusack and figure out what’s going on before it’s too late.
Move some hair from my butt to the front of my head, Variety…
Film’s thesping ensemble already includes Kelly Osborne, Josh Bowman and Matthew Settle, among others. Tom Vaughan (“What Happens in Vegas”) helms a screenplay by Allan Loeb (“Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps”) and Steven Pearl (“The Switch”).
Next up for Piven are indie drama “I Melt With You,” “Spy Kids 4″ and “Drift.”
Is Matthew Settle a name or a sentence? *sticks pipe between butt cheeks, holds magnifying glass over crotch* Yup, that’s a burn, my dear Watson.
Meanwhile, I made a bet with myself that I Melt With You would have a plot that centered around nostalgic aging hipsters and their love for obscure 80s music. It’s actually a thriller, so I lost my bet, but the good news is that I get to figure out how to blow myself.
And just because…

I’m sure Variety (ugh, I really hate their writing) just created the word “thesping” and yet it has already been irreparably abused linking it to the name ‘Kelly Osborne’.
so the 18 year old is playing the person going back to college?… derp?
Mike O’Malley got the best line ever on Glee: “I hate Duke like I hate the Nazis.”
I don’t have anything else to add. I just love that.
This well rounded cast is a veritable “Who’s that” of up and coming Hollywood talent.
Time to claim mercury poisoning and get the hell out while you still can Piven.
Upon hearing that casting was completed, Zac Efron’s phone finally had the moxie to exclaim, “Stop fucking staring at me you goddammed creep!”
Gabourey Sidibe as the sassy black sorority girl who just can’t seem to puke enough to lose weight and fit in.
It’s a running gag.
Kim Kardashian will respond with So Under Cover 2. Where she bangs the entire backfield of an NFL defensive unit.
See Donk, I figure that I’ve already limbered up, so…
Wouldn’t be a univeristy movie without Piven in it somewhere.
I have a belief that this is the “Surround yourself with uglier girls” theory put into practice. “How can I look like less of a Diva? Hire Piven!”
Excellent, Crappy.
Her dad would kill her if he found out she was fucking an under cover brother.
I have to disagree with Crappy, I don’t think Gabourey Sidibe has ever been involved in a running gag.
Serendipity was great though, right? I’m a fool for that John Cusack
At least ‘Just One of the Guys’ had tits.
