Richard Linklater Looking to Add Jon Hamm, Danny McBride, Key & Peele, and More to Incredible Mr. Limpet

Taking from 1964’s The Incredible Mr. Limpet that had Don Knotts turn into a fish and help hunt Nazi U-boats, director Richard Linklater is going for a remake and lining up a pretty great cast. Zach Galifianakis is attached to play Mr. Limpet, the role Knotts played, and there are no Nazis in this one.

However, Jon Hamm, Sarah Silverman, Danny McBride, Kevin Hart, Josh Gad, Jordan Peele, and Keegan-Michael Key are all in talks to join the cast. With Linklater at the helm and this cast, this might be one of the more fascinating, possibly great remakes in a long time.

Clerks 3 Will Have to Wait as The Weinstein Company Has Reportedly Passed on It

Kevin Smith was just about to get around to doing a third installment of Clerks when the whole project was brought to a screeching halt. The Weinstein Company, the owners of the franchise rights, have passed on it according to Smith based on the budget being too high for their liking, which was $6 million.

There’s no further word on the fate of Clerks 3, but we’d bet this is probably isn’t the end of the road just yet.

IFC Orders Sequel to ‘Spoils of Babylon’, ‘The Spoils Before Dying’

Will Ferrell will again don a fedora and a giant beard as Eric Jonrosh to bring another tale of America’s past that’s wonderfully ridiculous as IFC has just ordered a follow up to the Spoils of Babylon mini series.

The cast has yet to be set for The Spoils Before Dying, but they’ll undoubtedly get an amazing ensemble cast like they did the first time. The loose description seems to be much more noir-ish than Spoils of Babylon.

Summer 2015, when this will premiere, can’t come soon enough.

Some Versions of ‘Modern Family’ Around the World Have A Few Big Differences From The Original

Currently, Iran, Chile, and Greece have or are working on their own versions of ABC’s hit sitcom and perennial award winning series Modern Family.

In Iran and Chile however, same-sex marriage is not legal and thus, Cam and Mitchell are not adapted into the Iranian and Chilean versions of the show titled as “Haft Sang” and “Familia Moderna” respectively. Even more perturbing is the idea that producers for Haft Sang have not gotten rights to adapt Modern Family.
