As Seen On The ABC Family Channel, The Fun-In-The-Sun Comedy Drifts Onto DVD March 13
SANTA MONICA, CA – A hip, hot and hilarious tween/teen comedy, LOVEWRECKED washes ashore and hits the beach on DVD March 13 from Genius Products LLC. and The Weinstein Company. Set in a tropical paradise and filled with romance and summertime antics, LOVEWRECKED features an all-star line-up of Hollywood up-and-comers including Amanda Bynes (What A Girl Wants, She’s The Man, “The Amanda Show”), Chris Carmack (Just My Luck, “The O.C.”), Jamie-Lynne DiScala (“The Sopranos”), Jonathan Bennett (Mean Girls, The Dukes Of Hazzard: The Beginning) and ‘N Sync’s Lance Bass. From director Randal Kleiser (Grease, The Blue Lagoon), the film also features outrageous supporting performances from comedy veterans Kathy Griffin (“Kathy Griffin: My Life On the D-List,” “Suddenly Susan”) and Fred Willard (Anchorman, For Your Consideration). When a summer job at an island resort brings her close to her favorite pop idol, Jenny (Bynes) goes overboard to win his affections and steal some alone-time with him…convincing the hapless hunk that’s he’s marooned miles from civilization and that she’s his only companion! Premiering on the ABC Family Channel, the LOVEWRECKED DVD features three hilarious deleted scenes, and will be available for the suggested retail price of $19.95.
