Will Ferrell Will Play Two-Face
Yes, you read that right

Will Ferrell Will Play Two-Face
OK, we should say up front that it's not that Two-Face. This has nothing to do with Batman. Will Ferrell is actually signed up to star in a drama-comedy called Two Face, written by Vince Gilligan (Hancock).

In the movie, Ferrell will play a racist who develops a spli-personality after a prank goes wrong. Ferrell has apparently been attempting to get the film off the ground for the past three years and it should finally go before cameras in early 2009.
