It was announced on RAW that comedic actor Justin Long will serve as the Guest Host of next week’s RAW. However, WWE.com has announced that Justin Long will be joined by his co-stars in the upcoming film, "Going The Distance" (in theaters on August 27), as he will be joined by Jason Sudeikis & Charlie Day as the three actors will host RAW one night removed from SummerSlam. Here is the WWE.com article:
The stars of Going the Distance – Justin Long, Charlie Day & Jason Sudeikis – are ready to, well, go the distance for the WWE Universe when they serve as special guest hosts of Monday Night Raw on Aug. 16.
In Going the Distance, which hits theaters Aug. 27, Long plays Garrett, a newly-single New Yorker who hits it off with Erin (Drew Barrymore), a young woman from San Francisco. Neither thinks this apparent summer fling will last, but when Erin heads home to California and Garrett is forced to stay in Manhattan for his job, they soon learn that their feelings for one another are deeper than they imagined. Although his best friends Box (Sudeikis) and Dan (Day) give him grief for investing in a long-distance romance, Garrett is determined to make it work – even if it requires a full-time relationship with his cell phone.
Can Long, Day & Sudeikis maintain some semblance of order on Raw 24 hours after SummerSlam? Tune in to find out.
