Former SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE cast member Will Ferrell is forging ahead on his burgeoning film career. After scoring a modest hit with OLD SCHOOL and completing filming on ELF, Farrell has now attached himself to star in a possible big screen version of the classic TV comedy series GET SMART. Farrell would play the role of secret agent Maxwell Smart, originally played by Don Adams on the TV show.
Now that Farrell has attached his name to the Warner Bros.-based project, producer Andrew Lazar is shopping the GET SMART movie around town and to prospective screenwriters.
