Get him to the greek!

In "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," Infant Sorrow frontman Aldous Snow had it all figured out: hit singles in the form of "Inside of You" and "We've Got to Do Something," fans from all across the globe and several years of sobriety. But to quote another great musician, the times are a-changing when an off-the-wagon Snow returns in "Get Him to the Greek," the "Sarah Marshall" spin-off arriving in theaters Friday (June 4).

Russell Brand and Jonah Hill take center stage in the comedy about a disgraced rock singer and a budding talent agent looking to stage a glorious comeback. While that's the film's basic premise, the story behind the story has several layers. As the comedy arrives in theaters, MTV News is bringing you a cheat sheet to catch you up on everything you need to go "Greek."

One of the reasons moviegoers latched onto "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" was the onscreen chemistry of Brand as rock god Aldous Snow and Hill as an aspiring musician and Snow-obsessed fan. Apparently, the chemistry didn't go unnoticed by director Nicholas Stoller and producer Judd Apatow, as they announced a new comedy project re-teaming Brand and Hill just one week following the release of "Sarah Marshall."

That project would eventually become "Get Him to the Greek," and while Brand was set to reprise his role as Aldous Snow, Hill took on an entirely new character: Aaron Green, a record-company intern who volunteers to escort the down-and-out Snow from his London home to the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles for a comeback concert. Madness, debauchery and hilarity inevitably ensue.
