Tina Fey and Steve Carell will star in Date Night, a comedy that “revolves around a married couple who find themselves in harm's way after their routine date night goes horribly awry,” Variety reports. James Franco and Mark Wahlberg will have supporting roles. “Wahlberg plays a successful and crazily buff securities expert who flirts with Fey's character. Franco portrays a not-too-bright conman and petty criminal.” Hmm, Franco playing not-too-bright? Not sure he can pull that off.

McG: The Musical? “McG is in talks to bring the Broadway rock musical Spring Awakening to the big screen, developing it with original book and lyrics writer Steven Sater,” per The Hollywood Reporter. “Set in 19th-century Germany, the coming-of-age story follows a group of teens discovering their sexuality and dealing with high-wire topics like masturbation, abortion, rape and suicide.” Could be the next Sound of Music!

From McG to McMafia: Working Title “has acquired rights to McMafia, Mischa Glenny's sprawling book about organized crime around the world…With its globalist themes, the book is said to be something of an underworld equivalent of Thomas Friedman's The World Is Flat.” But, you know, with more guns.
