Our Idiot Brother is a 2011 film directed by Jesse Peretz and starring Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel, and Emily Mortimer. The script was written by Evegenia Peretz and David Schisgall based on Jesse and Evgenia Peretz's story, and tells of an idealistic man who intrudes and wreaks havoc in each of his three sisters' lives.

The film was co-produced by Anthony Bregman, Peter Saraf and Marc Turtletaub, and came into production unusually quickly for an independent film; principal photography had ended less than four months after the script was picked up by the producers. Filming took place over six weeks, primarily in various parts of New York City. The film premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival and is scheduled for a theatrical release in 2011.
Ned (Rudd) is a well-meaning idealist who has just been released from prison for dealing marijuana. In succession, he disrupts the lives and homes of his three sisters: career-driven Miranda (Banks), who is about to get her big break in journalism; bisexual hipster Natalie (Deschanel), whose lies are preventing her from moving forward with her responsible girlfriend Cindy (Rashida Jones); and Liz (Mortimer), who is too concerned with being the perfect mother to notice that her marriage is falling apart.
The story of Our Idiot Brother was conceived by Jesse Peretz and his sister Evgenia, who had written a screenplay together before but were unable to finance the project. They greatly enjoyed working together though, so they decided to draft another story, this time "a bit more commercial" and with characters in their 30s.
They planned to cast actors with whom Peretz was already friends, and created the main character with Paul Rudd in mind. The script itself was written by Evgenia Peretz and her husband David Schisgall, and was completed by December 2009 under the original title of My Idiot Brother.
Peretz brought the script to producer Anthony Bregman, with whom he had worked on the 2007 film The Ex. According to Bregman, "I was always looking for something to do with him [Peretz] and he came to me with this script. It was fantastic." Bregman was familiar with producers Peter Saraf and Marc Turtletaub and had previously attempted to collaborate with the two. He sent them the script in April 2010 and Saraf said that he "loved it and was eager to work with both of them [Bregman and Peretz]. Watch Our Idiot Brother Movie Online
The film was co-financed by Bregman's production company Likely Story and Saraf and Turtletaub's company Big Beach, with a budget of less than US$10 millionhe development of the project was unusually fast for an independent film; Bregman remarked in September 2010, "We worked on it for a few months and then it came together really quickly for the world of independent film. We will have a cut of the film less than a year after we saw this script
Saraf too said that "This movie will set a record for how quickly it came together: from the time I first read the script to the time we wrapped the shoot was four monthsPaul Rudd signed on to play the lead role even before Saraf and Turtletaub had picked up the film. The principal cast was announced in early June, including the roles played by Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Emily Mortimer, Zooey Deschanel and Rashida Jones. Additional cast members including Hugh Dancy, Kathryn Hahn, Shirley Knight, Janet Montgomery
