New comedy The House already has one former Saturday Night Live cast member in Will Ferrell, who is producing and starring. It’s attracted the attention of a second: Amy Poehler, who is in negotiations to play his wife.
Written by Bad Neighbours duo Brendan O’Brien and Andrew J. Cohen (with Cohen making his directorial debut on the project), The House follows a couple that manage to spend their daughter’s college fund. Desperate to round up some new moolah – and to earn their sprog’s respect again - they team up with a few neighbours to open up an illegal casino in the 'burbs. Naturally, things will go comically wrong.
New Line is backing the film to the tune of $40 million and is figuring on a shoot this August in Los Angeles ready for a 2016 release date.
Poehler will next be heard rather than seen in Pixar’s Inside Out, which will be in UK cinemas on July 24. She’s also one of the original returning cast members appearing in Wet Hot American Summer prequel miniseries First Day Of Camp, which will be hit Netflix on July 31. And she’ll be back co-starring with regular collaborator Tina Fey in Sisters, which has a January 15, 2016 release date on the books.
