This past weekend we sat down to a press conference with some of the cast members of The Other Guys to talk about their upcoming mock-buddy-cop comedy. Writer/Director Adam McKay, Will Ferrell, Michael Keaton, Eva Mendes and Mark Wahlberg were all in attendance and ready to perform for the flip cams! Between Ferrell joking about forcing his children to watch him in Elf even after they start crying to Keaton grinding on Wahlberg and trying to coax him into a fight, it was more of a show than an informative event.

What the madness unfold below…

For years there have been rumblings of a possible sequel, but now according to some of its stars, things are beginning to look a lot more serious.

It’s time for a change and I think Mr. Wahlberg is ready to take a walk on the “B” side. According to Variety, the actor will team up with funny man Will Ferrell to star in an action comedy entitled, The B Team.
