update: directory adam mckay tweeted on thursday “so bummed. paramount basically passed on anchorman 2. even after we cut our budget down. we tried… to all who asked: no we can’t do anchorman 2 at another studio. paramount owns it.”

NOOOOOOOOO how can this be true? paramount be talkin’ crazy!!!


i hope this isn’t a joke, because this would just about make my life complete!

it’s been confirmed: anchorman 2 is a “go!” both will ferrell & david koechner have gone public with their desire to don plaid suits and take to the cameras again.

i mean, it would be a travesty not to! these guys are pretty phenom together. but here’s a disclaimer from ferrell himself – the sequel won’t be anywhere near as good as the original!

“we don’t think we can make it as good. it would be really fun to do, so we might just try to make the craziest sequel you’ve ever seen. it could be terrible, but if they’re going to pay us to do it, then why not, right?”

agreed! do it! since anchorman‘s release in 2004, the cast has gone on to even more popular projects. which might make getting the gang back together a little harder. ferrell has his concerns, but koechner assures us that it won’t be a problem… they’ve got the same manager, so it’s just a matter of time that they’ll be back in the game! in the meantime, enjoy one of my (many) favorite anchorman scenes below.

sjp & ferris bueller expecting twins

 sjp-021207-a1

such surprising news! sarah jessica parker & matthew broderick, married for over 12 years now, are expecting two new additions to their family. the couple have a 6-year-old son james wilkie but have since had trouble conceiving. after several unsuccessful tries to expand their fam, they turned to surrogacy.

the surrogate mother will be giving birth to the couple’s twin daughters late summer. can’t wait to hear what they’ll name them! they will certainly have their hands full this year: sarah jessica parker will be filming the sequel to ‘sex and the city’ & the romantic comedy ‘did you hear about the morgans?’ as hubby broderick is currently starring in ‘the philanthropist’ on broadway.
