Fox Is Developing Comedies From Ed Helms and Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg

October 24, 2015

(via The Hollywood Reporter/Deadline)

It would seem nowadays that broadcast networks need their shows to have star power producing pilots and scripts even before they consider picking it up to series.

Thus, Fox is really stacking their comedy development slate with high profile, high concept projects this season. Just this week, they’ve added Weird Like Us from Ed Helms and Max Werner and Citizen Floyd from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg on to their docket.

Weird Like Us will follow the family dynamics of parents that go against the grain of society that end up raising kids that decide to join that very grain. Citizen Floyd has much fewer details as it’s only noted to be a workplace comedy with suspense and some political elements.

As far as Fox’s live action comedies go, we can see how these two series would pair nicely with Last Man on Earth.

Hulu Orders Pilot of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s “Future Man”

The Rogen/Goldberg comedy empire continues to grow.

This latest project, Future Man, from Seth and Evan focuses on a janitor who is also a world-ranked gamer tasked with saving humans from being wiped out according to visitors from the future.

So, a mix of Terminator and a better, more thought-out version of Pixels? 

Hulu has ordered a pilot, but talent has yet to be attached, which we’ll hope is the normal cavalcade of comedy stars/friends that Rogen and Goldberg routinely get.

Kelly Oxford Sells Pitch to Sony Pictures/Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s Point Grey Pictures

Despite what happened at the tail end of 2014 and lasted through the January of 2015 with The Interview, Sony and Seth Rogen/Evan Goldberg are still in business. 

Their latest move has less to do, as far as we can tell, with geopolitics and more writer Kelly Oxford.

Sony Pictures has bought a pitch for a teen sex comedy from Oxford that will be produced under Rogen and Goldberg’s Point Grey Pictures banner. In reading Oxford’s acclaimed Twitter account or her book Everything Is Perfect When You’re a Liar, we think that she’s got something up her sleeve besides your typical teen sex comedy fare.

The Interview Now Highest Grossing Online Film of All Time From Making $31 Million

(via Deadline)

Until recently, movies released through VOD hadn’t even seen grosses that go into the double digit millions. However, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg‘s The Interview changed all of that as, over the course of two weeks, it brought in over $31 million from being sold online and through various cable and satellite providers. 

Of the cinema’s entire canon of milestone historic films, The Interview will have to be included for the circumstances surrounding its release, its online gross, and the fact that, in spite of all of that, has plenty of dick and Lord of the Rings jokes.

Fighters For a Free North Korea To Drop in DVDs of “The Interview” Into North Korea

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

As the reason for the Guardians of Peace’s hack of Sony, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s The Interview has been undergoing a lot of scrutiny over the last few weeks. Despite Seth Rogen’s appearance on The Colbert Report from last night, Rogen and James Franco have cancelled their upcoming media appearances to promote the movie according to BuzzFeed.

Yet, there might be hope yet for this movie as an activist group known as Fighters For a Free North Korea are planning to drop DVD copies of The Interview, as soon as they’re available, into North Korea via balloons. They’ve done the same for radios in order to bring the outside world to those living in the completely isolated North Korean borders. Undoubtedly, watching the movie in North Korea is probably committing high treason and we wouldn’t want to imagine that punishment that goes along with that.

So, this whole incident is undoubtedly going to be made into a movie or documentary feature, right?

Sony Hackers Demand “The Interview” Be Pulled

(via The Wrap)

The hacker group currently known as The Guardians of Peace behind the mass hacking of Sony have reportedly demanded, in a note, that The Interview, a movie following the assassination of North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong-Un be pulled from being screened at all. 

So far, it seems all of Sony, especially the top brass, is being doxxed in addition to Sony’s current theatrical releases being leaked. North Korea was suspected to have a connection with these hackers given how they’ve called The Interview “an act of terrorism” in past months, but they have denied any involvement.

Currently, The Interview is still scheduled for its Christmas release date.

A few things we’re wondering: 

1) Have The Guardians of Peace or anyone in the North Korean government actually seen The Interview yet?
2) If they have, is it any good?
3) Would the U.S. Government or U.S. based hackers react to remotely the same degree if a foreign nation made a movie about assassinating our President?
4) Do they realize this is a comedy from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg who promised that they were not going to put too many dick jokes in their TV adaptation of Preacher for AMC and ruin it?
5) Could they have picked a worst time for the U.S. public to care about this whole ordeal with Ferguson, Eric Garner, Cosby, etc. happening right now? 
6) While this hack is indeed damaging to Sony, The Interview will probably pull in a way bigger opening weekend now given all of this controversy.

Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg’s Animated Comedy ‘Sausage Party’ Sets Cast/Gets Release Date

Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg’s Animated Comedy ‘Sausage Party’ Sets Cast/Gets Release Date

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are moving forward with their latest animated project, Sausage Party, that will indeed follow the adventures of a sausage and his search for meaning. In addition to Rogen, the voices of Kristen Wiig, Salma Hayek, Edward Norton, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson, Bill Hader, Paul Rudd and Danny McBride will be featured in the movie as well.
We haven’t heard any changes otherwise, so Sausage Party will be an R-rated animated comedy, which will be something we haven’t seen in quite some time. It’s set for a June 3rd, 2016 release.

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to Adapt “Console Wars” Based on Nintendo vs. Sega

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to Adapt “Console Wars” Based on Nintendo vs. Sega

A movie following the all out PR fight between Nintendo and Sega, which got to a point comparable to political mudslinging, is already interesting enough.

What will be more interesting is that the filmmaking team of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are currently attach to adapt the book Console Wars chronicling the face-off between the two biggest video game consoles of the 90s.

Based off of everything else they’ve done and the tone of the book, this might have a more dramatic bent than the rest of Rogen/Goldberg’s filmography.

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to Receive CinemaCon Filmmakers Award

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg indeed will be named Comedy Filmmakers of The Year at the 2014 CinemaCon. Before they accept the award, perhaps CinemaCon will play the clip from one of their most successful films to date This Is The End where a demon penis gets cut off.

Scott Rudin Productions Teams With Seth Rogen And Evan Goldberg Starring Cast of Workaholics

Though we’re sure producer Scott Rudin will bring a touch of panaché to this movie, we can only imagine the shenanigans that Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, the cast of Workaholics, and the guys behind Workaholics will come up with.

We’re pretty sure there will be a red band trailer for this.

Lizzy Caplan to Joining Seth Rogen and James Franco in ‘The Interview’

Lizzy Caplan to Joining Seth Rogen and James Franco in ‘The Interview’

So, of course, the North Korean political intrigue comedy by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg starring James Franco and Rogen involves a talk show host and their producer and will now feature the delightful Lizzy Caplan. 

Well, we’re already wanting to see this in theaters without a trailer.

Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg Set to Do R-Rated Animated Feature ‘Sausage Party’ for Sony

Obviously, Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg have wanted to do an adult animated comedy where they anthropomorphize a sausage for a long time, but just waited until they had the success of something like This Is The End to shop it around town. 

They’re calling ‘Sausage Party’ and presumably will be dick joke free, right?

Comedy Central’s The Roast of James Franco finally aired last night and we were happy to see the dais as friends, especially when it came to Bill Hader playing the President of Hollywood or Nick Kroll pondering who Evan Goldberg, Seth Rogen’s writing partner, exactly is. 

Watch these clips and more of the James and the rest of the dais at Comedy Central’s YouTube channel.
