Stifler's mom and Jim's dad do some naughty things in their return to the new American Pie reunion movie, but the real racy and hilarious moments happened during an interview with AMERICAN REUNION's Jennifer Coolidge and Eugene Levy.
Listen to the interview below.Jennifer Coolidge and Eugene Levy's American Pie characters finally get to meet in on-screen in AMERICAN REUNION and do some unmentionables. Stifler's mom as usual is the aggressor but now Jennifer's character gets to play with the big boys aka Jim's dad who is now a widower. At a recent press interview with Eugene Levy and Jennifer Coolidge, Jennifer revealed she initially asked writer/directors Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg for one last romp with Finch in AMERICAN REUNION, but the filmmakers preferred to have her character grow as a person much to her chagrin. The actress jokingly added she was hoping she would get to sleep with all the young characters in the sequels including Stifler, but "they wouldn't let her."
She later added that for the last scene where Jim's dad (Levy) and Stifler's mom become intimate she wanted her new partner to service her rather than what you see on the screen. Her Getalong Gang collaborator and AMERICAN REUNION co-star was amused with her comments, but he too got in on some fun when he added he couldn't "swallow" the idea of his character being the sexual aggressor with Stifler's mom.
Ironically, Eugene Levy told the press in the room he originally declined American Pie because the material could be taken "into dangerous ground" with its raunchy humor. His agents had to convince the American Pie actor to take the meeting with the director. When he met the director Paul Weitz and the writer Adam Herz he was convinced he would be in good hands with the racy material. He further added the success of the American Pie franchise is that there will always be 16-year-old boys who can relate to the series.For more with the two AMERICAN REUNION stars, listen to their interview below. AMERICAN REUNION is in movie theaters April 6, 2012.
