News > Will Ferrell and company talk upcoming projects

Coming Soon recently had a chance to interview Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and John C Reilly.

Ferrel and McKay talk about the Anchorman sequel:

"We just had so much fun making that movie, and it was hard to get made, but what's been great is that it's taken on such a life of its own," Ferrell admitted. "At least the feedback we get is it's beloved, so yeah, it's just one of those that feels like an evergreen thing that we can go back and do it again."

"We had a lot of ideas," McKay confirmed to us later in an exclusive interview. "The opportunity to be that free and loose. The audience would give us a lot of rope with that character at this point, a lot of free rein. They all know it, and they all know it's going to get crazy, and that's just too tempting. It's like oh my God, where can we go? What's the next level of this idea we can push to?" A suggestion of showing Ron in the '80s had been discussed. "We got about seven ideas we're kicking around right now, so somewhere out of all of them, it will somehow fit together."

McKay elaborates on his sci-fi comedy, "Channel 3 Billion," as well as the new Gary Sanchez TV series, "Eastbound and Down," which will air on HBO, and Reilly talks Dewey Cox. For the full interview visit Coming Soon.
