Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Apatow Teaming for Cop Comedy
Jack Black (ORANGE COUNTY) and Will Ferrell (OLD SCHOOL) have sold an untitled comedy pitch to New Line that will see them star as motorcycle cops in Los Angeles. In the film, Ferrell will play a cop that moves to Los Angeles because there is no crime in his hometown. Black will play the youngest in a family of cops that is wholly unsuited for the job. Judd Apatow (FREAKS AND GEEKS) has agreed to direct and write the film. “Jack, Will and I are old friends,” Apatow said. “We’ve been looking for an opportunity to collaborate on a project, and this idea really makes us laugh. The idea of getting these two comedians to work as a team has always been very exciting to me.”
