    A REN FAIRE Movie?

    Tuesday, February 12, 2008, 12:14 PM CST [General]

    Was doing some surfing over on MSN news and found an article about a new movie coming up...its called "Ye Olde Times" (I dont know if that is the actual title or not) and looks to star: Jack Black, Matthew Lilliard, David Arquette, Justin Chatwick, and Orlando Jones.  I've posted the basic synopsis below...it sounds...Interesting...

     

    According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chatwin will play the romantic lead of the film about a modern day medieval troupe of actors at one of the cheesier Renaissance Fairs. Among the troupe’s members are Arquette and Lillard, reuniting from their stint together in Scream. Orlando Jones will be one of the more uppity members of the troupe; an actor committed to performing only serious renditions of Shakespeare.

    Sadly, it doesn’t sound like we’ll see Jack Black in Renaissance garb. He will play Professor Shockworthy, the narrator of the picture.

    Ye Olde Times will be Robert A. White’s first attempt at writing/directing. His only other previous credit is Other People’s Parties, a comedy coming out next year with significantly less notable names attached. Hopefully he’s ready to reign in the comedic actors signed on to his Ren-fest comedy

     

    I just hope its not a stupid, make fun of the Rennies kinda thing...that would be disappointing and cause me the need to hunt down and flay those involved...

    We shall see I suppose.
