Last summer, Sean Penn decided to exit THE THREE STOOGES project which was being developed by The Farrelly Bros. At the time, Benicio Del Toro and Jim Carrey were said to play Moe and Curly. Not too long after that an info hit the web that Paul Giamatti will replace Penn, but turns out the deal never got locked in and now, Penn has returned to play Larry…
Bobby Farrelly talked to The Boston Herald and revealed that Penn will play Larry. What I thought was Penn taking a vacation, Farelly said Penn just needed some time off to take care of his family. I’m not into gossip but probably had something to do with his divorce with Robin Wright.
Del Toro is still attached to play Moe but Carrey is nowhere near the project anymore.
THE THREE STOOGES Movie is not a biopic, it’s going to be another comedy with a separate story from the silly side world of Farrelly Bros but this won’t be Farrellys’ next project because they have HALL PASS first, about a man whose wife, looking to spice up their sex life, gives him a pass to play the field for a week, starring Owen Wilson, which starts production next month in Atlanta.
Anybody still excited about this THREE STOOGES Movie? After the dull The Heartbreak Kid and Fever Pitch (damn you Jimmy Fallon), I don’t know if I wanna take another dosage of Farrelly Bros.‘ brand of humor.
Can anyone even imagine what THE THREE STOOGES movie would look like with Del Toro and Penn as Moe and Larry?
