Part teen sex comedy, part anarchic road trip, Sex Drive has a punchy, forward-leaning energy that marks it as one of the best high school comedies since the original American Pie, and a big part of that success is up-and-comer Clark Duke, who plays the wryest side of a love triangle, opposite Josh Zuckerman and Amanda Crew. Perhaps to date still best known for the hilarious web series Clark and Michael, Duke seems poised to drink Jonah Hill’s milkshake, as evidenced by choice forthcoming wisecracking supporting roles opposite Eddie Murphy and Nicolas Cage. As part of a weekend built around his very first press junket, I recently sat down with Duke to talk about pal Michael Cera, the state of film comedy and why he now loves Hyundai Sonatas.
