They’ve teamed up for Foot Fist Way, Eastbound and Down, Vice Principals, and now, this.

Jody Hill and Danny McBride, the minds and talent behind the man myth that is Kenny Powers are collaborating yet again on a new feature project along with Josh Brolin attached and Scott Rudin producing. Other than those details and that Hill is directing and co-wrote the script with McBride and frequent collaborator John Carcieri, we only know that this project will be called Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter.

Our guess would be that it might be in the realm of Talladega Nights and Eastbound, but focusing on McBride as a hilariously foul-mouthed bad-ass hunter trying to cement his hunting legacy.

Hopefully, we’ll find out the exact details soon.

Danny McBride and Jody Hill Return to HBO’s Series Order of “Vice Principals”

There’s no more need to lament the absence of Danny McBride in your life because the series finale of Eastbound and Down has passed us.

HBO has just ordered 18 episodes of Vice Principals from McBride and Hill, which is their take on being the VP in high school. Given how great Kenny Powers was as a gym teacher, we’re excited to see what they do with a vice principal character.

Stream HBO Series on Amazon Prime Starting Today

Finally, you don’t have to have an HBO subscription in order to get HBO Go to stream some of your favorite HBO shows online. A whole load of HBO content just hit Amazon including Eastbound & Down, Flight of the Conchords, early seasons of Veep and Girls, and several comedy specials. You do however have to be an Amazon Prime subscriber, which might be bitter sweet, as you’ll pay $99 for one year of Amazon Prime.

However, that’s roughly around $100 cheaper than a year of HBO if it’s any consolation.

Ken Marino Joins Eastbound & Down For Final Season

Though we know that he wasn’t a regular cast member on Eastbound & Down, we, for a brief second, were really surprised that Ken Marino wasn’t already on the show just based off of recent performances in Burning Love and Wanderlust.

Either way, with news like this, we’re looking forward to the show closing out strong.
