‘American Pie’ cast reuniting

The movie: "American Reunion"

When: Opening midnight today at local theaters

Cast: Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Seann William Scott, Chris Klein, Mena Suvari, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Tara Reid, Eugene Levy, Jennifer Coolidge

Directors: Jon Hurwitz , Hayden Schlossberg

The story: Some 13 years after they graduated from high school in "American Pie," Michelle, Jim, Heather, Oz, Kevin, Vicky, Finch and Stifler (not to mention Jim's dad and Stifler's mom) return to East Great Falls, Mich., for their lucky 13th reunion.

The buzz: The third cinematic sequel to the 1999 comedy hit also serves as a reunion for "American Pie's" original cast members. Writer-directors Hurwitz and Schlossberg, however, are new to the franchise, moving over after writing all three "Harold and Kumar" comedies.
