Buffy and Big Love stars join 17

The new comedy starring Zac Efron


According to The Hollywood Reporter, Michelle Trachtenberg (“Buffy, the Vampire Slayer”) and Melora Hardin (“Big Love”) will fill the fem-spots in Adam Shankman’s new ha-ha effort, “17”.

In a scenario that turns the concept of “Big” on its head, the Jason Filardi-penned script follows a middle-age father who wakes up to find he’s 17 again. In order to be close to his children, he enrolls in the same school as they attend.

Matthew Perry already has been cast as the grown-up version of Efron, while Leslie Mann plays his wife.

Trachtenberg is playing Efron/Perry’s daughter, who doesn’t know that the boy she is crushing on is her father. Hardin is the principal at the school.

Production begins this month.
