    Sony Pictures gives a sneak peek of its Sex Tape – No, We’re not kidding!

    MUMBAI: On 31 March, Sony Pictures released the first trailer of their upcoming film, Sex Tape which revolves around the time when Jay (Segel) and Annie (Diaz) first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark.

    To kick things up a notch, they decide – why not? – to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea – until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they’re just one click away from being laid bare to the world… but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they’ll never forget, they’ll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.

    How I Met Your Mother star, Jason Segel stars alongside Golden Globe Award nominee Cameron Diaz (Charlie’s Angels, Bad Teacher) in this romantic comedy from Kate Angelo, the writer and producer of Will & Grace and What About Brian. Also starring is Rob Lowe (The West Wing, Brothers & Sisters) and Golden Globe Award nominee Jack Black (School of Rock, Kung Fu Panda) with EMMY Award winner Rob Corddry (Children’s Hospital) and Ellie Kemper (The Office). The film is directed by Bad Teacher and New Girl helmer, Jake Kasdan.
