The Promotion Steve Conrad

Seann William Scott and John C. Reilly star in this comedy following two men competing for a managerial position at a chain store in Chicago. 33-year-old Doug Stauber (Scott) is the assistant manager of his local Donaldson's supermarket.

When developments for a new store get underway, he is the only likely candidate for the managerial post until Richard Wehlner (Reilly) arrives from Canada. As they go all out to impress their boss, Scott Fargas (Fred Armisen), and Donaldson's board of directors, their family relationships suffer. Soon their competitiveness puts the chances of either of them being successful in jeopardy.
