While at NYU studying film, Jordan was inspired by Spike Lee. The subplot concerning a veteran black actor almost didn't make it to the film. It was only when Henderson auditioned that the Martinis and Jordan rewrote the Clive character. Someone like my character wouldn't have been able to do what he did if he wasn't with a black company. It's essentially a story of brothers realizing that the women they meet spark them to take the next step and jump-start their lives.
Romantic comedy connotes a very generic studio package.
We used lobsters to open some doors for us. The Martini brothers, Jordan and Henderson form a closely-knit group who saw the opportunity to make a clever and heartfelt film.
