In the film, Bledel is forced to move back with her parents (featuring Michael Keaton as her dad!) while hitting the interview circuit looking for work. Along the way, of course, romance beckons. "Post Grad" will hit theaters August 14.

Those who went to college probably remember the sheer terror of having to leave the comfy confines of campus in search of the great beyond. "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" star Alexis Bledel is facing just that experience in "Post Grad" (previously titled "The Post-Grad Survival Guide"). The upcoming summer comedy co-stars Zach Gilford, Rodrigo Santoro, Jane Lynch, Carol Burnett and...Michael Keaton (awesome).
In the film, Bledel heads home after graduation and begins the slow process of finding a new life, a new job and new love. "Post Grad" hits theaters August 14th; check out the teaser poster from the film after the jump. Read more...
