Penn Badgley Is About To Not Hit The Big Time

3:26 PM EDT on June 17, 2009

Penn Badgley is in a new thriller movie called The Stepfather. Here is the trailer, you guys:

This looks like the single least scary movie ever made! "I've got to go down and check out those padlocked meat lockers that my stepfather moved into the basement." LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU! OR DON'T! I'M COMPLETELY UNINVESTED IN YOUR WELL-BEING!

The real question, of course, is will Dan and Serena ever get back togeth[gunshot].

Obviously Penn Badgley was sitting in his agent's office and was like, "Where is my Disturbia?" And his agent was like, "Dan, baby, can I get you anything? Diet Red Bull? Listen, we got a great new script. It's called The Stepfather. You're gonna' love it." (You know, Hollywood Agent talk.) And Dan was like, "Who else is in it?" And the agent was like, "Absolutely nobody." And Dan was like "Is it scary?" And his agent was like "Not at all." And Dan was like "How much does it pay?" And his agent was like, "$150." And Dan called his mom and was like, "Mom, are you sitting down? I'M GETTING MY DISTURBIA!"

Dreams really do come true.
