Now this is an interesting turn of events. Screenwriting duoRhett ReeseandPaul Wernick, who wroteZombielandand are working on the newG.I. Joesequel andDeadpoolscripts as well as theCowboy Ninja Vikingadaptation at Disney, are to make their feature directing debut a script that, oddly, is not their own. THR'sRiskyBizreports that the project is a comedy calledDoc and Howie, which was shortened from its original longer descriptive titleDoc and Howie Whack a Grannywhen it was on theBlack List. TV writer& producerSteve Leffwrote the original screenplay. Interested to see what these guys can do as directors next.
Described as being in the tone ofHarold and Kumar,Doc and Howieis about two guys - Doc and Howie - who accidentally kill an elderly woman when they neglect to help her carry her groceries up the stairs. In a"fortuitous twist,"the incident brings them into contact with the woman's hot granddaughters (of course), and they struggle with the dilemma of whether to tell them the truth. Montecito Picture Co is producing. I'm not really sure what to think about this yet, as it honestly sounds like some wacky Farrelly Brothers kind of comedy, not something I'd expect to see Reese/Wernick interested directing, but I should wait to see or hear more about it. It's a bit too early to criticize this now, as it might still be good!What do you guys think?
