Nasim Pedrad To Star in Culture-Clash Comedy

Los Angeles Times is reporting that Nasim Pedrad has set up a movie withThe Switch directors Will Speck and Josh Gordon. Pedrad will write and star in the movie which looks at the differences between an All-American family and their Persian neighbours. The film is reported to have a distinctly Southern California feel. No news on other possible cast members or whether Speck/Gordon will direct or just produce, but either way, it’s kind of a big deal for Pedrad. 
Nasim Pedrad has been with SNL since the start of Season 35 and was a previously a cast member with Groundlings.
