Slow Learners is a 2015 American romantic comedy film directed by Don Argott and Sheena M. Joyce and starring Adam Pally, Sarah Burns, Reid Scott, Catherine Reitman, and Kevin Dunn. An indie, romantic comedy film, it follows two friends who embark on a journey of self-discovery when they decide to help each other become "bad" and "crazy."[1]

Cast

Production

In October 2011, producer O'Connor provided the seed money for the movie to get started while O'Connor and the other producers spent 2012 trying to acquire the funding necessary to begin filming.[2]

Casting

On April 16, 2014, Adam Pally was cast in the lead role.[3][1]

Filming

Principal photography began in May 2014 and was conducted in and around Media, Philadelphia.[4]

Filming commenced on May 28, 2014, after a month-long shoot.[5]

Release

Tiehel-Stedman said of producers: "they will have the task to shop the film to festivals and look for distribution opportunities. It will take nearly 18 months in post production before general audiences have their chance to laugh"[6] thus suggesting theatrical release of Bad Boys Crazy Girls in late 2015.
