Rob Schneider's Blockbuster Hit Comedy “The Chosen One” Comes To DVD November 9th

Oct. 9, 2010 - PRLog -- Xenon Pictures in association with From Out Of Nowhere Productions and Viva Pictures is planning the national DVD release of the Rob Schneider/Steve Buscemi hit comedy "The Chosen One."  "The Chosen One" has received overwhelming critical acclaim and continues to be a top 10 DVD rental during a 30 day exclusive release through Blockbuster.

Co-written and directed by Rob Schneider, "The Chosen One" will be available in stores nationwide on November 9th.

In addition to Rob Schneider ("Grown Ups" "Deuce Bigelow: Male Gigolo"), the film co-stars Steve Buscemi ("Pulp Fiction," "Fargo" the new HBO series "Boardwalk Empire"), Holland Taylor (CBS's "Two And A Half Men") and Peter Riegert ("Traffic," "The Mask" "National Lampoon's Animal House").

Schneider stars as Paul Zadzig, a used car salesman whose life hits the skids after he has an on-the-job meltdown and his wife dumps him.  His brother (Steve Buscemi) mocks Paul and offers no support while Paul's mother (Holland Taylor) is a widow too fixated on the recent loss of her husband to offer her son any solace.  Just when Paul decides to end it all, a tribe of Holy men travel thousands of miles from their devastated homeland and mysteriously anoint Paul as their spiritual leader they've been waiting for called The Chosen One.  Unwilling to accept this role, Paul finds himself on a comical journey of self discovery that leads him to eventually accept who he is and that the fate of humanity is in his hands.

"This is one of my all time favorite films," said Rob Schneider in a recent interview, "I wanted to make "The Chosen One" because I think all of our lives often have much more meaning that we think."

"The Chosen One" is the first film that Rob Schneider not only stars in and directs but he also co-wrote the script and produced the film with his brother John Schneider.
