Jack Black Is Back Developing a Comedy Following a Struggling Musician with Dwight Yoakam at Fox
(via Deadline)
In case you don’t remember, Tenacious D was once a great series about a struggling rock duo.
Jack Black seems to be at his best when comedy and music are intertwined in whatever he’s working on like Tenacious D or Festival Supreme.
That’s why we’re glad to hear his latest project is a single camera comedy at Fox that he’s working on with Dwight Yoakam, an accomplished country musician who had a pretty great turn as a doctor in Crank.
Written by Alex McAulay and called Belles and Whistles, it’ll follow a dad moving to Nashville to be a country star.
We’re definitely excited about the possibilities here as something that’s plenty of parts Tenacious D the series with a tad of Nashville could be what’s happening here.
