Just like Laurel & Hardy
Admit it, you thought that I was going to post news that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (the duo from Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz) were going to be doing a movie based on the not so funny SNL skit with Steve Martin and Dan Akroyd. Shame on you and shame on me for leading you down that path.
Seth Rogen, Jason Bateman, Kristen Wiig, and Bill Hader have joined Greg Mottola’s (Superbad/Adventureland) Paul. Scripted by and starring Pegg and Frost as two British nerds, fresh off a trip to Comic Con, who decide to go on a road trip to Area 51. They meet an alien named Paul who asks them to help him escape from the U.S. Government with tons of references to Aliens, Star Wars, and Back To The Future. Rogen will be providing the voice for the alien creature, and we can only assume that Bateman, Wiig, Hader and Lynch will either play government officials or characters they meet along the way on their road trip adventure. Thanks Variety.
