John Frizzell (Alien: Resurrection, Dante’s Peak, Office Space, Beavis and Butt-Head Do America, The Waterfront, Legion, Thirteen Ghosts, Gods and Generals) has provided the original score for the upcoming comedy Driver’s Ed. The film is directed by Bobby Farrelly (There’s Something About Mary, Dumb & Dumber) and stars Sam Nivola, Sophie Telegadis, Aidan Laprete, Mohana Krishnan, Molly Shannon and Kumail Nanjiani. The movie follows a high school senior who hits the road to save his relationship with his college-bound girlfriend, with his principal and driving instructor in hot pursuit. Thomas Moffett (Shrink, An Actor Prepares) wrote the screenplay. Jonas Pate (Outer Banks, Aquarius), Jennifer Pate and David Stone (Wicked, The Boys in the Boat) are producing the project. Driver’s Ed is premiering this month at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Frizzell has also continues to score Hulu’s King of the Hill revival, which will return for another season next year.
