Bad Teacher- A Light Comedy

A comedy centered around a foul-mouthed, junior high teacher who, after being dumped by her sugar daddy, begins to woo a colleague — a move that pits her against a well-loved teacher.

The plot has been directed by Jake Casdan and written by Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Esienberg. The main cast includes Cameron Diaz as ‘Elizabeth Halsey’, Lucy Punch as ‘Amy Squirrel’, Jason Segel as ‘Russell Gettis’, Justin Timberlake as ‘Scott Delacorte’,
Phyllis Smith as ‘Lynn Davies’, Jillian Armenante as ‘Ms. Pavicic’, Matthew J. Evans as ‘Garrett Tiara’ and Andra Nechita as ‘Gaby’.

Elizabeth Halsey
Cameron Diaz is a gold digging
Chicago-area middle school teacher at the fictional John Adams Middle School who curses at her students, drinks heavily, smokes marijuana, and only shows movies while she
sleeps through class.

She plans to quit teaching and marry her wealthy fiancé, but when he dumps her, she must resume her job. She tries to win over substitute teacher Scott Delacorte

Justin Timberlake, who is also wealthy. Amy Squirrel
Lucy Punch, a dedicated but overly enthusiastic teacher and colleague of Elizabeth, also pursues Scott while the school’s gym teacher, Russell Gettis
Jason Segel, makes advances on Elizabeth, which she rejects.

After learning Scott’s ex-wife had large boobs, Elizabeth plans to get surgery to enlarge her breasts, believing she is being overlooked by him. However, she cannot
afford the $10,000 procedure. To make matters worse, Scott admits that he has a crush on Amy, only viewing Elizabeth as a friend.

Elizabeth attempts to raise money for the surgery by participating in her 7th grade class car wash in provocative clothing and by manipulating parents to give her money for more school supplies and tutoring,

Elizabeth later learns that the teacher of the class with the highest state test scores will receive a $5,700 bonus. With this knowledge, Elizabeth decides to change her style of teaching, forcing the class to study intensely for the upcoming test. However,
the change is too late and insufficient.

When Elizabeth learns that Amy and Scott are chaperoning an upcoming field trip, she smears an apple with poison ivy and leaves it for Amy, who ends up with blisters covering her face and cannot go.

When the new school year starts, Elizabeth is kinder to her co-workers, has started a relationship with Russell, and did not get the breast enlargement because she feels that she looks fine the way she is. Elizabeth also has a new position in the school
as the new guidance counsellor.
