Universal used the occasion of James Franco's Comedy Central roast to debut the first trailer for "Neighbors" (formerly titled "Townies"), next summer's high-concept comedy with Seth Rogen and Zac Efron. The film stars Rogen and Rose Byrne as a mild-mannered married couple who have their lives turned upside down after Efron's fraternity house moves in next door (Dave Franco and Christopher Mintz-Plasse are part of the frat, as you hoped and expected). The red-band trailer for "Neighbors" premiered via MTV on Monday night and it features at least two R-rated moments (Mintz-Plasse having sex with a young woman next to Rogen's porch being one), while also setting up the premise quite nicely (love that "Se7en" reference). Nicholas Stoller ("The Five-Year Engagement," "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and "Get Him To the Greek") directs the film, which is out on May 9, 2014. (It's never too early to think of next summer.)
