The directors behind the latest Scream movies and SNL's Andy Samberg are cooking up a movie together.
Taken star Liam Neeson is being eyed for The Naked Gun reboot with Lonely Island director Akiva Schaffer at the helm.
The Lonely Island trio of Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer are no strangers to the feature film world. Samberg’s appeared in a number of films, Taccone directed the comedic masterpiece MacGruber, and Schaffer helmed Hot Rod and The Watch. But while Hot Rod had the involvement of all three Lonely Island members, it was a project that already existed by the time they signed on, so it took until Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping to get a fully fledged, 100% Lonely Island movie.

The Lonely Island has never shied away from incredibly random, very specific humor, and they may have just created their magnum opus in that form by dropping a surprise release on Netflix with The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience. For those who need a refresher on late-80s MLB history, Jose Canseco (played by Andy Samberg) and Mark McGwire (played by Akiva Schaffer) were both on the Oakland Athletics and were known for hitting home runs.
