Step Brothers (2008)
Two spoiled adult men (Ferrell and Reilly) are pulled into a new sibling rivalry after their respective single parents get hitched. The formula didn't work for The Brothers Solomon last fall, but Will Arnett + Will Forte ≠John C. Reilly, never mind the still-remarkably-popular Will Ferrell, who wrote this screenplay with director Adam McKay, he of Anchorman and Talladega Nights fame. Not much is known about the project at this time save what you can glean from the first trailer, but we're happy to see that Ferrell and McKay are stepping out of their comfort zone a bit -- that being their penchant for stretching a character sketch into a feature film.

Doug and Richard could not be more different, but going head-to-head in a contest of wits and will reveals how they have more in common than they once suspected. The duo battle toward a hilarious final showdown that will leave you guessing until the very end. The film is the directorial debut of Steve Conrad, the writer of the \"The Pursuit of Happyness.\"
