By
Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone will star in the comedy set in the music world while Schaffer and Taccone will co-direct.

The trio behind "Dick in a Box", "Like a Boss" and "I'm on a Boat" will be bringing their comedic and musical talents to the big screen.



Universal has acquired an untitled project with The Lonely Island (comprised of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone). They will also star in the comedy, which is set in the music world.

Judd Apatow is producing via his Judd Apatow Productions banner, along with Samberg, Schaffer and Taccone. Universal’s senior vp of production Erik Baiers will oversee the project for the studio.
The comedy group The Lonely Island found fame for their work on Saturday Night Live, where Samberg was a cast member and Schaffer and Taccone were writers. Hit skits like "I'm on a Boat" led to the release on an album, Incredibad, in 2009. The trio exited SNL after the 2011 and 2012 seasons. In 2013, they released The Wack Album, which featured some of the biggest names in music including Lady Gaga, Maroon 5's Adam Levine and Justin Timberlake.

Samberg currently stars on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and his recent film credits include That's My Boy and Grown Ups 2. Schaffer directed The Watch the the groups' first film Hot Rod, and appeared in Neighbors and Grown Ups 2. Taccone directed MacGruber and appeared alongside his collaborators in Neighbors and The Watch.

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS on December 5th at 7:30 PM in Austin. MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of Mary Stuart ( Saoirse Ronan ). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne alongside her cousin Elizabeth I ( Margot Robbie ), who rules as England’s Queen. Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence.

Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices."

Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...
