Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence To Star In ‘Death At A Funeral’
In case you haven’t heard, Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence, Tracy Morgan, and Kevin Hart rounded out a great cast for a new film titled Death At A Funeral.
Clark Kent says: Sorry, I’ve been gone away for a second. I’m in Miami right now on personal business. But this is one of those remakes that may make me come back up to NY if it has a screening. Read more after the jump.
The film is about a funeral ceremony turns into a debacle of exposed family secrets and misplaced bodies. The film also stars Danny Glover, Luke Wilson, Columbus Short, Regina Hall and Loretta Devine and is set to be released by Screen Gems on April 16, 2010.
Chris Rock will be teaming up with Sidney Kimmel Entertainment and Screen Gems for a re-imagining of Frank Oz’s 2007 British comedy Death at a Funeral. Rock will produce and star in the film, in addition to co-writing the script with Ayesha Carr (an Everybody Hates Chris veteran). Although Oz’s original was well-received by many critics, it didn’t get very much traction with theatergoers, drawing only a niche audience. The new film will have a primarily African-American cast and focus on a funeral that “devolves into a debacle of misplaced cadavers, indecent exposure and family secrets.”
Clark Kent says: There will be plenty of sassy banter when this hits theaters in April 2010!
