Back in 2014, Ed Oxenbould scored the role of a lifetime and marked the beginning of his career in Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day with the title character and alongside Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner. Now, he returned for a new comedic role in The Exchange that pits him with another great cast with Avan Jogia and Justin Hartley.
Here’s the official synopsis for this film:
In The Exchange, a socially awkward but highly enterprising teenager decides to acquire a “mail-order best friend,” a sophisticated exchange student from France. Instead, he ends up importing his personal nightmare, a cologne-soaked, chain-smoking, sex-obsessed youth who quickly becomes the hero of his new community.
Dan Mazar (Dirty Grandpa) directed the film from a script written by Tim Long (The Simpsons).
