Will Ferrell in The Land of the Lost

Land of the LostIt’s Wednesday and what could possibly be better on a Wednesday then some Will Ferrell news? Nothing! So it is with great pleasure I bring you the latest: USA Today tells us that that Sleestak is back! Fans of the kitschy adventure series “Land of the Lost” will remember these villainous lizard creatures with the single horn and giant eyes. The latest evolution of the species is preparing to menace the always entertaining Will Ferrell in a big-screen remake.

“The Land of the Lost” film is now shooting on multiple sound stages at Universal Studios, and the Sleestak surface in a temple where Ferrell’s character and his two companions (comedian Danny McBride, and Anna Friel) are hoping a giant crystal will return them to their own dimension. The plot involves three adults (not a dad and two kids as on TV) accidentally thrust into a realm ruled by dinosaurs, monkey-men called Pakuni and the murderous Sleestak.

Director Brad Silberling says he fought to keep the human shape of the Sleestak from the original production, and not give into the urge to render them as spindly computerized beings. The release of the film is slated for summer 2009.

To me this whole thing sounds utterly twisted and downright hilarious! I want it now!
