Variety is reporting that Vince Vaughn is set to star in an untitled David O. Russell penned and directed comedy.
Russell the man behind such films as Three Kings and I Heart Huckabees will continue his outside of the box style in a film that will find Vaughn as the wiseass host of a radio call-in show whose life gets turned upside down when he starts becoming his callers.
Your guess is as good as mine where this one will go, but Russell is certainly a writer/director that can make something interesting.
Russell was quoted by Variety saying, “This ain’t no ‘Huckabees’; there is no question, this aims to be more accessible.”
The film will be distributed by Universal Pictures.
