Natalie, Natalie, Natalie.
You are better than this.
Isn’t Friends With Benefits also the name of one NBC’s pilots? I think Danneel Harris is playing one of the leads…
I have the script. i read it. It was originally called ‘F**K Buddies’ but i guess they’re gonna make it less NC17 becuase the script by Liz Meriwether
Was pretty x-rated (*because)
Saw a test screen last night. Despite title, it’s really great. Funny as hell and well paced, Ashton is actually really believeable
