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.

It would seem that C.K. is just really good at playing an awkward cop.

With having a groundbreaking accomplishments with his stand-up, TV show, and web site, Louis C.K. has now set his sights back on one of his first loves, film.

C.K. will write, direct, and star, as is becoming a bit of his auteur signature, in “I’m A Cop” following the life of a bumbling volunteer cop who is goaded into becoming an actual cop after the passing of his mother, a decorated retired cop. Legendary producer Scott Rudin is on board for the project as well.

If you remember C.K. playing a cop on Parks and Recreation and attempting to play a cop in an episode of Louie, you know that C.K. might have something brilliant, yet again, up his sleeve.

The supposed play that Larry David was rumored earlier this year to be possibly doing is now actually happening. David has written Fish in the Dark and Scott Rudin is producing.

There isn’t a time table as to when this will hit Broadway quite yet, but, as far as live stage productions that are coming soon, you should keep this and Trey Parker’s Cannibal: The Musical on your radar.

The rock comedy that had Jack Black as an unorthodox music teacher, School of Rock, is now becoming a TV series at Nickelodeon.

Nickelodeon ordered the series from Paramount TV and have yet to attach someone to play Dewey Finn, Jack Black’s character in the movie. Still, Scott Rudin and Richard Linklater, the director of School of Rock, are set to executive produce, which should instill faith as to what might happen with this show.

We’ll see next year when School of Rock the series is set to premiere.
