Peter Farrelly. Brett Ratner. Mike Judge. Todd Phillips.
No, it’s not a list of people who’ve had to change their mobile numbers because Empire keeps calling them up when we’re lonely. Well, ok, it is – but it’s also a list of some of the directors who are set to contribute short films to a new portmanteau feature film that aims to do for comedy what Four Rooms did for… no, wait, that doesn’t work.
Anyway, Farrelly is the genius mastermind behind the currently untitled film, which could include as many as 24 short films on an array of subjects. Farrelly himself will direct two segments, while Phillips, Judge, Ratner and Blades Of Glory writers Josh Gordon and Will Speck have been approached to contribute. And we’re sure that they’re just the tip of the comedy iceberg.
Charles Wessler, John Penotti and Farrelly will produce the movie, which will be funded by Overture.
You know what’s coming next, readers – we want your suggestions for more potential directors for this intriguing project, that aims to do for comedy what **Dr. Terror’s House Of Horrors **did for houses of horror. No, that doesn’t work either. Dammit!
