The Late Bloomer

서른 살에 찾아온 사춘기, 인생이 뒤집혔다

성 치료사 피터는 성욕은 성공을 방해할 뿐이라는 내용의 베스트셀러까지 낸 인물이지만, 정작 한 번도 연애를 해본 적이 없고 성적인 욕구에도 전혀 관심이 없다. 그러던 어느 날 농구를 하다 쓰러져 검사를 받은 그는 뇌하수체를 누르고 있던 양성 종양 때문에 사춘기를 한 번도 겪지 못했다는 사실을 알게 된다. 수술로 종양을 제거하자 서른 살의 피터에게 뒤늦은 사춘기가 몰아닥치고, 불과 몇 주 사이에 넘치는 성욕과 오락가락하는 감정 기복, 갈라지는 목소리와 여드름까지 온갖 변화가 한꺼번에 찾아온다. 오랜 친구이자 이웃인 미셸을 향한 감정까지 걷잡을 수 없게 되면서 그의 일상은 엉망진창이 되어간다.

The Late Bloomer is a 2016 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Kevin Pollak and written by Gary Rosen, Joe Nussbaum, Paul A. Kaplan & Mark Torgove, and Kyle Cooper & Austyn Jeffs. The film stars Johnny Simmons, Maria Bello, Brittany Snow, Jane Lynch, J. K. Simmons, Kumail Nanjiani, Beck Bennett, and Paul Wesley, and is based on journalist Ken Baker's autobiography Man Made: A Memoir of My Body, in which he detailed experiencing puberty for the first time at age 27.

Production

Alcon Entertainment acquired the film rights to the journalist Ken Baker's autobiographical book Man Made: A Memoir of My Body in 2008, with a script set to be written by Gary Rosen. The film would be based on the true story of Baker, who went through his puberty in three weeks at the age of 27. The delaying of his puberty and normal development was caused by a benign tumor in his brain.

In October 2012, it was announced that the film was to be directed by Randall Einhorn and would star Elijah Wood. The script had been written by Nussbaum, and rewritten by Paul A. Kaplan & Mark Torgove. The film was set to be produced by Jesse Israel of Ineffable Pictures and Brent Emery of Coup d'Etat Films, with financing by Dignity Film Finance.

In May 2015, it was announced that the film would now be directed by Kevin Pollak, making his narrative debut. Raphael Kryszek and Israel would produce the film for Ineffable, along with Heidi Jo Markel for Eclectic. In August 2015, a new cast was announced, including Johnny Simmons in the lead role of sex therapist Dr. Peter Newmans, whose experiences mirror those of Baker in real life.

Principal photography on the film began in late August 2015 in Los Angeles, and wrapped in Bulgaria on September 5, 2015.
