Michael Angarano and Michael Cera on Coming of Age (Again) in Their Bristly Buddy Comedy ‘Sacramento’
Michael Angarano writes and directs 'Sacramento,' a buddy comedy where he and Michael Cera come of age again, with Kristen Stewart and Maya Erskine.
Both former child actors, each grew into an adult in front of audiences during the aughts — for Angarano, as Sean Hayes’ son in “Will and Grace” or the nepo-superhero of Disney’s teen actioner “Sky High”; for Cera, in the meaner streak comedies of “Arrested Development” and “Superbad.” But that particularly intense spotlight — being the on-screen representation for a millennial generation then coming into consciousness — is less of a burden in their mid-thirties. Both Mikes get to come of age again in their new buddy comedy “ Sacramento,” where the two play childhood friends who have long-since drifted apart — until they unearth a few shared anxieties during a dare-gone-too-far road trip to the sleepy Central Valley state capital. CERA: When you’re in your early twenties and you’re working professionally, all the other people your age are pretty much in school — except for other out-of-work actors.
