Will Is Hollywood’s Most Overpaid

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

11-19-09WF

Forbes has released its annual list of the Hollywood hotshots who give the least bang for a studio’s bucks, and the usual gang of suspects are present—like Tom Cruise, Eddie Murphy and Jim Carrey. Topping the list is funnyman Will Ferrell, largely due to the dismal failure of “Land of the Lost” last summer.

Maybe nobody wanted to watch a film that looked like a tour of the La Brea Tar Pits, since “Lost” made only $65 mil and caused two studio heads to lose their jobs. Maybe Will’s next project should be a sequel to “Talladega Nights.”

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Last night’s Thursday Update on SNL was opened with a great skit. Will Ferrell made an appearance as George W. Bush endorsing McCain and Palin, though McCain was reluctant to accept his endorsement. Its a pretty hilarious skit topped off with Tina Fey (Palin) hiking up her skirt for a photo op. Genius! Check out the video here.

Candle Blowers

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

No one can forget Will Ferrell’s Frank character streaking his little heart out in Old School, and then asking his wife if there’s a Kentucky Fried Chicken open while he’s sitting naked in the car with her and her friends. Such a classic scene! Will Ferrell must be a hoot at home and a walking personal clown for his wife, and the biggest kid in Hollywood is celebrating his birthday today. Happy 41st, Will! Other folks sharing their special day with Will:

Mark Indelicato (the Ugly Betty star is 14)

Corey Feldman (he’s so ’80s and he’s 37)

Rain Pryor (actress and Richard’s daughter is 41)

Barry Sanders (the NFL great is 40)

Phoebe Cates (the actress is 45)

Michael Flatley (he’ll probably be dancing today at 50)

Stewart Copeland (the Police drummer is 56)

Ruben Blades (the singer/actor is 60)

We posted photos of your first look at Will Ferrell from the Los Angeles set of ‘Land of the Lost’ yesterday and now we’ve the video for your viewing pleasure.

Will Ferrell filming Land of the Lost

Here’s your first look at Will Ferrell in the big screen adaptation of ‘Land of the Lost.’ Ferrell plays Park Ranger Rick Marshall who, along with his two children, inadvertently stumble into a mysterious land populated by dinosaurs and other creatures, including the mysterious and dangerous race of Sleestak’s. From the pictures, it looks like the theme of the movie will be more slapstick silly than serious. In the scene, Ferrell tosses the cigarette butt and the cheetos bag in the lake.
