Ferrell Gets Some ‘Action’
This just in: Will Ferrell, in his first deal since announcing his departure from “Saturday Night Live,” will star in the romantic comedy “Action Newsman.”
He will portray Ron Burgundy, a 1970s anchorman with raging hormones, perfect hair and inflated ego in the vein of Austin Powers. He’s the most beloved teleprompter reader in Portland until he’s threatened by the arrival of an ambitious female newscaster who, unlike Burgundy, has mastered journalism.
Ferrell co-wrote “Action Newsman” with “SNL” writer Adam McKay, who will direct the project for Fox-based Regency.
