New Line has set Rob Corddry (WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS and HAROLD & KUMAR ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY) to star in PROJECT A.

The action-comedy centers on a man who is trained by the U.S. government as a Cold War experiment to become the world's biggest jerk. Etan Cohen (TROPIC THUNDER) wrote the script.

Ben Still and Stuart Cornfeld will produce.  No director is attached to PROJECT A yet.

The project has beenin development for several years.  Coddry told The Hollywood Reporter, "Ben and Stuart gave it to me to read years ago, and it's always been the first thing I ask my agents and managers about. They've always said, 'Go open a movie first!' "

This sounds like something written with Ben Stiller in mind to start. Sounds custom made for him.

"Ben Still and Stuart Cornfeld will produce." I'm guessing you meant Ben Stiller just because the sponsered links show Ben Stiller Movie?!? I only ask because there technically could be a Ben Still. Not trying to be the spelling/grammar police, but names are a little bit different.

I think Rob Corddry is pretty funny. Still probably just a rental.

Agree, isgrimner. I'm thinking rental.

How funny is it, though, that Corddry is playing Ari Fleischer in Oliver Stone's "W." movie?

I thought New Line was dead? i mean this may be old news since it says the script has been floating around for years.

goldeneyes, agreed, who proofreads these articles? is Ben Still = Ben Stiller?
