He wrote and executive-produced the Halloween trilogy with David Gordon Green. He’s starred in a variety of motion pictures including\, Tropic Thunder\, Pineapple Express\, Alien: Covenant\, and Mitchells vs. The Machines. McBride co-founded the production company Rough House Pictures. Thrilling Tales of Modern Men is his first short-story collection. He lives in South Carolina with his family. \n“Danny McBride possesses a singular and insightful gift for capturing the essence of the imperfect\, flawed\, vulnerable modern man and the struggle and strife that comes with his internal longing for a better self.

And yet they have one thing in common—each probes the fragile masculinity that has become an inescapable part of modern American culture. In this audacious and unforgettable debut collection\, McBride redefines the tale of the modern man...
