HOW TO LOSE FRIENDS & ALIENATE PEOPLE Trailer

I'm not really sure what to make of this new trailer for "How To Lose Friends and Alienate People" but I do know that Simon Pegg doesn't seem unlikable enough for this kind of role.  If the title referred to Kirsten Dunst's character, there would be no confusion.  But I've never pegged Pegg as playing the "love-to-hate" role.  That seems to be more in line with someone like Larry David and that fits well since director Robert B. Weide directed most episodes of "Curb Your Enthusiasm".  I guess I just feel a great sense of conflict for this trailer since I'm a huge fan of Pegg and want to see him star in films, but from the look of this trailer, it seems like he's been painfully miscast.  You can judge for yourself by checking it out below.

 

And for those just tuning in, here's a brief plot synopsis:

 

British writer Sidney Young (Simon Pegg), who despises the world of celebrity, leads efforts on an alternative magazine, Post Modern Review, that mocks the media attention paid to these stars. When Young is offered a job by Clayton Harding (Jeff Bridges) at conservative New York based Sharps magazine, he begins his ascent to success. Starting as an outsider, he makes a gradual movement from his former world, soon becoming the confidante of starlet Sophie Maes (Megan Fox) and beginning a relationship with colleague Alison Olsen (Kirsten Dunst). Eleanor Johnson (Gillian Anderson) is the power-hungry publicist pulling all the strings. The events unfolding in Young's life now will either break him or make him.
