Will Ferrell And Mark Wahlberg Are Plan B Cops Presumably Funny Action Comedy

As you just heard: Hollywood is apparently weighing its options on packages pitched by stars themselves and hoping up to fill their 2010 line-up (since the writer’s strike will probably make 2009 one of the worst film years ever).

The second teams-up the unlikely pair of Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg for an action comedy project called, “B Team.” Several studios are apparently bidding on a project that sees the duo as cops as written by Chris Henchy.

What’s the connection? Henchy co-wrote “Land of the Lost,” and is a co-exec of “Entourage.” “Hey, your guy and my guy, let’s get him to write something!” Word, broheem.” It’s that easy, people. Now just find someone semi-famous.

What’s it really about? Hey, who cares? Look at the stars, f u n n y. Apparently the film has an expensive price tag attached, but it’s expected to find a studio by the week’s end. [Variety]
