The Internship (2013)

One of the best opportunities that came for Josh Brener was to act in the success movie The Internship. It was produced in 2013 by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Vaughn">Vince Vaughn</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawn_Levy">Shawn Levy</a> in collaboration with some big-players from the movie production companies: Regency Enterprises, 21 Laps Entertainment, Wild West Picture Show Productions and TSG Entertainment. Josh Brener played Lyle Spaulding, a Google young manager that has to “teach 2 old dogs new tricks”.

The story is about two former salesmen, Billy McMahon (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Vaughn">Vince Vaughn</a>) and Nick Campbell (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Wilson">Owen Wilson</a>) that got an internship opportunity at Google. Although they didn’t have any relevant experience, they were chosen due to their uncommon interview answers. The main duties of the new interns are delegated by Google managers. Whoever wins, will receive jobs at Google. All interns were divided in teams, in order to complete these tasks. Lyle (Josh Brener) is their manager. He is actually what the others call “a dork”, and this team is considered to be a “failure” team. Of course, the movie is about the trouble these two interns will get into, but also the unusual ways of fixing things.

Critics were not so open to this movie because it was considered to be a Google commercial disguised in a movie comedy. They had one nominalization, at Teen Choice Awards (2013), for Choice Summer Movie: Comedy.

Back to Josh Brener, the ’07 Harvard graduate who said that he knows for a fact that he will be poor, he has a net worth of 1.5 million $.
