Basketball fans watching the Bulls-Hornets game in New Orleans on Wednesday night got something of a surprise—and I’m not talking about the Bulls’ bruising 90-67 win.  No, apparently Will Ferrell, who is in New Orleans shooting a movie, was on hand to make a series of announcement before the game, mocking a handful of the players, accusing one of still living with his mother, insisting another speaks not a bit of English, and that one Italian player refuses to eat Italian food.  Check it out after the jump.

This week in theaters Will Ferrell explores his more serious side in director Dan Rush‘s adaptation of Raymond Carver’s short story, Everything Must Go. In the film, Ferrell shows us that he’s capable of an extraordinarily subtle and poignant performance with very few moments of dark humor. This was very much a labor of love for Ferrell who stepped onto the quick 23 day shoot in an attempt to do something new. Find out more about him making the film and his return to comedy with his political satire with Zach Galifianakis…

Well, it’s all been building up to this. With word that Steve Carell’s tenure on “The Office” was up, fans have been sadly counting down the days until his departure.

“The Office” welcomes one of the biggest guest stars it has ever had this week to distract us from the fact that one of the key ingredients in the success of the show–Steve Carell–won’t be sticking around much longer. Well, for what it’s worth, the distraction succeeded. As it turns out, Will Ferrell is pretty funny. Who would have guessed?

Will Ferrell has talked about being in an all-Spanish Language film, but it was hard to know if he was doing a favor, or what exactly it would be. With the trailer for Casa de mi Padre (in English, “House of My Father”), it’s entirely a Will Ferrell movie. Also starring Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna, it appears to be a take on the florid styles of Spanish soap operas, but done as a comedy. Take a look at the trailer…

There’s something to be said that only the Beastie Boys could bring out Danny McBride, Seth Rogen, Elijah Wood, Jack Black, Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Ted Danson, Stanley Tucci, Susan Sarandon and many more famous people for what appears to be a very funny goof on the history of the Band. McBride, Wood and Rogen play younger versions of the band, with Reilly, Ferrell and Black the older iterations. How this all works out is unknown, but the trailer is here for Fight For Your Right – Revisited, and it is great. Check it out…

Earlier this month we discovered that Steve Carell and his alter ego Michael Scott won’t be around for the season finale of “The Office.” When he jumps ship there will still be four episodes left, which makes a lot of people wonder how the writers and producers will handle such a void. They’ll hire Will Ferrell that’s how!

Adam Yauch’s Fight for Your Right Revisited, featuring Elijah Wood, Danny McBride, Seth Rogen, Jack Black,  Will Ferrell, and John C. Riley delivers big time. Just imagine every actor you can think of packed into a hilarious 30 minute music video. This is Hollywood the way I like to see it, poking fun at itself and reminding everyone that the very best actors are not only able to make you laugh, but they’re able to laugh at themselves.
