Kumar leaves the White House for White Castles?

Kumar leaves the White House for White Castles?

In a move I found perplexing, Kal Penn left Hollywood to work with the White House.

From Reuters, ((Nine months after leaving Hollywood for the White House, the actor Kal Penn is returning to Tinseltown to reprise his most famous role, as the marijuana-loving "Kumar" in the raucous "Harold and Kumar" feature film comedies. ))

His official title in the White House was Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement. In a nutshell, it was another job with a long title and not much else. Our big government at work, folks…

Something tells me he wasn't getting much play from the ladies telling them he was “the White House Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement”. he can tell them, “hey, I'm Kumar and that guy from Epic Movie” with better results.

While the first Harold and Kumar movie was enjoyable, the second movie didn't do it for me. And, I'm entirely sure Kumar should go back to the well again. The working title for Harold and Kumar III is "A Very Harold And Kumar Christmas". Really, someone thought it would be a good idea to do a Christmas one?

Well, I guess he could always do Epic Movie II: Epic Bigger.

Don't even joke about an Epic Movie sequel.

I think Kal Penn is going back to the movies because the paycheck is a lot better.

Lol, I get the feeling they might try to go to the well again.

Penn thing: You're probably right, but you would think he'd consider that before taking the gig. And, getting written off a hit show wasn't good move for him either.
