Will Ferrell is going to extend his acting range… in Spanish!
This is really funny. According to TheWrap.com, Ferrell will be the star in “Casa de mi padre,” or “House of My Father,”.
It is going to be fully in Spanish with English subtitles.
There are no plot details to report at the moment, but I imagine some of the biggest Latino movie stars are going to get a call to either to co-star or appear in cameo roles.
Ferrell will produce through his company Gary Sanchez Productions, where the project is in development. No director or release date is confirmed yet.
