Ricky Gervais will change the title of his new movie The Man From The Pru to avoid offending staff at Prudential, according to The Sun.
The comedy, which Gervais is writing with regular collaborator Stephen Merchant, pokes fun at staff working at the insurance firm in the 1970s.
"It was going to be called The Man From The Pru but the Prudential didn't like how we portrayed them," the comic is quoted as saying. "So we've got to change the title."
A rumoured new title for the film is All The Young Dudes. Shooting on the project is expected to start in June.
Gervais has just finished work on the movie This Side Of The Truth, which will star Jennifer Garner, Jonah Hill, Tina Fey and Christopher Guest. He has confirmed that the movie will be released in the US in September.
IYou bet they didn't like it :lol:
