Jason Bateman (Identity Thief) makes his feature directorial debut with the subversive comedy Bad Words released on DVD and Blu-ray by Universal Pictures (UK) on 31st August 2015.

Bateman stars as Guy Trilby, a 40-year-old who finds a loophole in the rules of The Golden Quill national spelling bee and decides to cause trouble by hijacking the competition.

While reporter Jenny Widgeon (Kathryn Hahn of We're the Millers) attempts to discover his true motivation for entering, Guy finds himself forging an unlikely alliance with a competitor: awkward 10-year-old Chaitanya Chopra (Rohan Chand of Homeland), who is completely unfazed by Guy's take-no-prisoners approach to life.
