The Eating Out films have proven to be immensely popular and prestigious comedies which not only launched the career of its creator, Q. Allan Brocka (Boy Culture, Rick and Steve: The Happiest Gay Couple In All The World), but it has also showcased the talents of such rising stars as American Idol¡¯s Jim Verraros, Desperate Housewives¡¯ Ryan Carnes, Marco Dapper, arguably one of the hottest men alive, and the comedic genius, Rebekah Kochan. Eating Out 1 had an indie theatrical release in over 25 cities, screened in over 100 film festivals and won numerous Jury and Audience awards including the prestigious Best First Feature Levi Strauss award at Frameline in San Francisco. It aired on Here! Television in the U.S. and proved to be one of the most popular DVD releases in Ariztical Entertainment¡¯s video history. Eating Out 2 followed in similar fashion, which puts Eating Out 3 in a prime position to clean up the whole plate!

Casting:



CASEY, 21, Skinny and cute in a geeky way, yet possessed with a sly sense of humor. Casey is a romantic dreamer who wants nothing to do with the gay community, yet would love to commune with the gorgeous Zack. Having just moved to town to live with his Aunt Helen, Casey is coerced by his new boss and instant gal-pal Tiffani, now the proprietor of the Nail Me Salon, to volunteer at the local Gay and Lesbian Center so that she can scope out all the hot men at the upcoming Charity Auction ¡°Male Sale¡±. It is at the Center where Casey meets Zack. Convinced that he¡¯s way out of his league, Tiffani convinces Casey to adopt the online persona of her ex, the smoldering hot, Ryan. Zack takes the bait and quickly falls for ¡°Ryan¡±, while in person Casey becomes his confidante, just out of reach of a romantic connection. Soon enough, Zack learns of the ruse and breaks his ties with Casey. Only until Casey offers himself up at the ¡°Male Sale¡± and embraces his community is Zack finally able to recognize Casey¡¯s true inner beauty....LEAD ROLE. ROLE INVOLVES SHIRTLESS SCENES AND SIMULATED SEX.



ZACK, 22, any ethnicity. A dark-haired God with a killer bod/six-pack abs, great smile, and eyes that look like trouble. Zack, is caught up in a skin-deep relationship with Lionel yet unwittingly falls for Casey who is pretending online to be Ryan, Tiffani¡¯s straight ex. As a volunteer at the Gay and Lesbian Center, Zack is proud of his community and, like Casey, has a romantic, Roman Holiday-loving streak just waiting to burst out. When he discovers Casey and Ryan¡¯s charade, he severs ties with both of them. Only until Casey proves to be a selfless member of the community is Zack able to see him as his match. LEAD ROLE. ROLE INVOLVES TASTEFUL, SINGLE SHOT, FRONTAL NUDITY.



RYAN, 23, any ethnicity. Scorching hot, physical perfection with the charm to flirt with anyone who¡¯s into him. Although he cheated on his ex, Tiffani, this straight stripper in a gay bar is surprisingly lovable and generous. Back in town just in time to get caught up in Casey and Tiffany¡¯s ruse, Ryan agrees to a date with Zack in order to get back at Tiffani, but soon develops the ulterior motive of bringing Zack and Casey together. Using all of the stripper skills at his disposal, Ryan does just that, which causes Tiffani to fall back in love with him all over again. LEAD ROLE. ROLE INVOLVES TASTEFUL, SINGLE SHOT, FRONTAL NUDITY.



LIONEL, 22, any ethnicity. Super hot and a bit bitchy-looking. Think a ¡°Mean Girl with abs¡±and his own little trio of hotties following behind him.

When she discovers that Zack is being fooled by Tiffani, Ryan, and Casey, she comes to the rescue with a big showstopping catfight with Tiffani. CO-STAR.



HARRY, 60, any ethnicity. An elderly gay man easily dismissed as an ¡°Old Troll¡± but who offers the right insight and heart that can only come with experience. A staff member at the Gay and Lesbian Center¡¯s help counter, Harry becomes Casey¡¯s protector and introduces him to the notion that the gay community can be more diverse and welcoming than he initially thought. CAMEO ROLE FOR A FUN CHARACTER ACTOR.



PAM, 40, Thai. Decidedly unhip, belligerent manicurist. At the Nail Me Salon, Mother Hen Pam and her young sidekick, Candy, are Tiffani¡¯s foul-mouthed ¡°Greek Chorus¡±. FEATURED. ROLE REQUIRES FLUENCY IN THAI LANGUAGE.



CANDY, 25, Thai. This manicurist is learning the ropes from a real pro, Pam. Some day, she too will be able to annihilate customers with her stare, but is not quite as good as Pam...yet! This young charge and her older mentor know exactly how to get under their boss, Tiffani¡¯s, skin. FEATURED. ROLE REQUIRES FLUENCY IN THAI LANGUAGE.

Storyline: . How far would you go to get the person of your dreams? In EATING OUT 1, a straight guy pretends to be gay to get the girl. EATING OUT 2: SLOPPY SECONDS saw a gay guy pretending to be straight to land another guy. This time out, meet Casey, the geeky cutie, who is taken under Tiffani¡¯s wing and pretends to be Ryan, Tiffani¡¯s hot, straight ex, in order to seduce the smoldering Zack online. In EATING OUT 3: ALL YOU CAN EAT, the guys are 3 times hotter, the stakes are 3 times higher, and the lesson learned can be summed up in 3 simple words: Being Yourself Rocks.
