Get Him to the Greek is a 2010 American comedy film written and directed by Nicholas Stoller and starring Jonah Hill and Russell Brand. The film was released on June 4, 2010. Get Him to the Greek is a spin-off sequel of Stoller's 2008 film Forgetting Sarah Marshall, reuniting director Stoller with stars Hill and Brand. Brand reprises his role as character Aldous Snow from Forgetting Sarah Marshall, while Hill plays an entirely new character. The film also stars Elisabeth Moss, Rose Byrne, and Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Aaron Green (Jonah Hill) is a driven, idealistic young college graduate who works as a low-level talent scout at Pinnacle Records. He lives with his girlfriend Daphne (Elisabeth Moss), a doctor in her internship, but they do not get to see each other often due to her heavy work schedule. Pinnacle Records has lost a lot of money, so the head of the company, Sergio Roma (Sean "Diddy" Combs), asks for ideas. Green proposes to have Aldous Snow play at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles for the tenth anniversary of a particularly famous performance there.
Though he at first shoots it down, Sergio later decides Aaron has a good idea, so he orders him to transport Aldous from London, to an interview on the Today Show, then to the concert in Los Angeles. Before he leaves, Aaron has a fight with Daphne. She was offered a job in Seattle and wants to move there, but Aaron is hesitant to do so. Aaron has to leave to catch a flight, and he departs thinking they have broken up. When he arrives at London, he finds Aldous is incredibly difficult and unwilling to listen to Aaron. As a result, they spend a long time out partying, constantly pushing their departure further and further back. Aaron has been trying to limit Aldous's narcotic intake, but is forced to let him do drugs and drink for fear that he won't perform. Because of this, when they finally arrive at the Today Show, barely making the deadline, Aaron drinks and smokes as much as he can so Aldous cannot. Although Snow originally wants to sing "African Child", he forgets the words. Aaron, in his high and drunk stupor tries to assist him, but Aldous simply changes the song to "The Clap", an old favorite. His performance is well accepted, and both Aaron and Aldous feel better about future prospects.
While preparing to fly to Los Angeles, Aldous forces Aaron to smuggle drugs in his rectum. During their travels and time in London and New York, Aaron learns that Aldous has become miserable and lonely, as he misses his son and has not talked to his father in several years. Aaron shares his relationship troubles, and Aldous encourages him to enjoy his time in Los Angeles. Giving advice to Aldous, Aaron suggests he visits Jackie Q and his father and so the two make a stop in Las Vegas the night prior to the
show to see Aldous's father. Sergio also arrives, wanting to help oversee the final proceedings. Aaron, on Sergio's orders, leaves to have sex with a girl named Destiny, but she sodomizes him with a large dildo. He tells Aldous and his father that he has been raped, so they encourage him to smoke a "Geoffrey", a joint which is filled with many different drugs. Aaron starts believing he is having a heart attack, but the others are too high to help him. Aldous has a fight with his father; Sergio jumps in, and their tussle ends up setting the club on fire. Aldous attempts to help Aaron with an adrenaline shot to the heart and they run out of the club, chased by Sergio.
