The ‘Workaholics’ Guys Wrote And Starred In Their Own ‘Die Hard’ Parody [Trailer]

They've made careers out of playing stoners on their hugely popular TV show, and now the terrible trio have their own movie. Lots of dudes being dudes.

Stoners around the world have made Workaholics a very successful TV show, running for a full seven series.

You’ll have seen Anders, Blake and Adam popping up in movies and shows quite a bit recently, and now they’re back together for a Die Hard parody.

It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but if you liked their show then you’ll get a good few laughs out of this one.

Written by Anders Holm, GQ are optimistic:

The whole thing looks like Die Hard by way of the underrated Workaholics, which isn’t a bad space to operate in (the again-relevant Xander Cage gets a namecheck, too), and the trailer hits all your typical action-comedy beats: Functional TV stars dipping their toes into big-budget but unthreatening filmmaking? Check. Lots of bluster and jokes about dudes bein’ dudes? Check. A nostalgia-baiting cameo from an early-’00s celebrity? Check plus. None of this is a bad thing, by the way. This looks just like what it needs to be.

That early 00s celebrity? Go on, find out for yourself:

Shaggy in the house.

Game Over, Man! hits Netflix on March 23.
