Will Ferrell Reviews, Interviews & More
Warner Bros. released the final poster for this summer's Man of Steel, and it's quite different from all of the others we've seen. In the last and latest one sheet, Henry Cavill gets his closeup as his superman is seen flying fast over Metropolis. You check out the poster below. Also, the first trailer for Kristen Wiig's comedy Girl Most Likely hit the web...
With Anchorman: The Legend Continues one of the most anticipated films of the year, it's going to be hard to keep a lid on some of the film's secrets. Like who's coming back in small parts, and who's cameo-ing (we're not talking about someone like Harrison Ford, who looks to have a meatier role). So, if you want to know about three cameos, read on. If not, we...
Hooray! It's been announced that today is officially the first day of filming on the set of the highly anticipated Anchorman: The Legend Continues. Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and the rest of the Channel 4 News team will be embarking on another adventure filled with laughs. So yeah, we want set pictures now.
Any excuse to get Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly together in a movie, even if just for a few minuets, is a good one. That being said, the two are going to share some screen time again. No, it won't be in Step Brothers 2 but Anchorman: The Legend Continues. Yes, it is a happy day indeed.
When you've turned into one of America's comedy sweethearts, you're bound to land great roles in some of the bigger comedies to burst into theaters. Obviously we're referring to Kristen Wiig, the Saturday Night Live alum whose surprise hit Bridesmaids turned her into the comedy superstar that she is. So to find out that she's in talks to land a role as a love interest...
Now that Anchorman 2 is gearing up for filming at the start of early next year, we're getting little sneak peeks at what we should expect from the upcoming comedy. Here's a hint: it might involve a couple of more musical numbers.
The Campaign unites Will Ferrell with Zach Galifianakis, and the way comedy works these days, it's a surprise they haven't work together sooner. They play opposing candidates in a local election that gets ramped up by petty rivalries and the influence of big money, and turns two reasonable guys into monsters. And it's funny.
Anyone feel the need for a laugh? Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis star in The Campaign, which follows a bozo politican (Ferrell) who's run unopposed for years until now, when he has to face actual competition (Galifianakis) from someone equally unqualified for office. Now there's a new trailer. Check it out.
As the schedule for new releases seems to mirror that of their theatrical dates, we’re starting to see some of the spring films that either did okay, or completely missed at the box office. We’re also getting one of the best musicals of all time, and Martin Scorsese’s first masterpiece. Not that bad a week.
Chris Hardwick moderated the two-and-a-half hour Warner Bros/Legendary Films mega-panel at Comic-Con, which kicked off with Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim, a science-fiction film about giant robots who fight to save humanity from an onslaught of 25-story-tall monsters. The panel was a special treat for those in Hall H because del...
Anchorman: The Legend Continues (or Anchorman 2, for those of you with short attention spans) dropped a new teaser onto the internet this morning (as if new teases for Skyfall and The Master weren’t enough for one day). A bit of a rush job, there’s no new footage in the Anchorman: The Legend Continues teaser, but it does round up Will Ferrell, Paul...
Ever since the March announcement that Anchorman 2 was finally happening, fans have been waiting for any kind of preview of the long-awaited sequel. This week, we get two—teasers for the film have been attached to prints of The Dictator, and today, we have a teaser poster heralding the film, it’s new official title, and a loose release date. Check it out after the...
Jay Roach has had something of a dichotomous career as a filmmaker—early on, the director made a name for himself directing such comedies as the Austin Powers franchise, as well as the first two films in the Meet the Parents series, before course-correcting and becoming HBO’s main man when it comes to political films about presidential...
With the news that Anchorman was finally getting the sequel its creators had tried to make (for years now), you'd figure they'd have their ideas and plans on lockdown. There was talk of testing it as a stage show, and all sorts of interesting rumors about the directions it could head, but writer/director Adam McKay has talked about their progress so far. He tells...
Cult comedy fans have something to rejoice about this morning—after years of Paramount Pictures stating it simply wouldn’t happen due to the low cost effectiveness of comedy sequels, Will Ferrell appeared on Conan on Wednesday night in character as Ron Burgandy. Why? To play a few flute solos, suggest host Conan O’Brien undergo plastic surgery after...
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...
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...
Can "The Office" survive without Steve Carell? That's been the question on everyone's mind, from fans of the show to the execs who have a vested economic interest in its success. Well, while we can't pretend that last night's episode was extraordinary, we can say that from what we've seen, there might just be some life left in this series. Take a glance at our review to see...
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. This week brought us the last Michael Scott episode ever, and seeing as he's always been the show's central character, it goes without saying that it was a big night. But did the episode live up to our...
"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?
