After the jump, you can watch Will Ferrell’s new NYPD recruitment video, created for Funny or Die as promotion for The Other Guys. I would’ve put it at the beginning of this post, but I really wanted to use that screen cap as the banner image. Fat guy dancing, gratuitous crotch bulge, leotards — it really has everything. As for the video, SPOILER ALERT: it’s funny.
In newsier news, The Wrap is reporting that Ferrell has signed on to star in a Spanish-language comedy called “Casa de mi Padre,” which, if my Spanish serves me, roughly translates to “The Snakes of the Toilet.” Wait, did I say Spanish? I did indeed. Like with subtitles and everything.
Ferrell is attached to star in and produce a Spanish-language comedy titled “Casa de mi padre,” an individual familiar with the project has told TheWrap.
Ferrell will produce through his company Gary Sanchez Productions, where the project is in development.
Ferrell’s publicist would neither confirm nor deny his involvement to TheWrap.
Based on what I know of Spanish TV, I assume Ferrell will play either a busty socialite or a giant baby licking a lollipop. Play me off, accordion cat. (*paints zebra stripes on a donkey*)

Vince Vaughn really let himself go in that photobomb.
Even without subtitles, I predict more laughs than ‘Nacho Libre’.
Will Ferrell be in this movie or won’t he? I don’t know.
SHOUTING IN LIEU OF WRITING ACTUAL JOKES HURRRR DURRRR
Somebody laughed during Nacho Libre?
@Chartory- Dane Cook?
Abner Louima didn’t find that video funny. Not funny at all.
Jan Brewer has pre-emptively announced that she will boycott Will Ferrell’s untitled Spanish language film.
I laughed a lot during Nacho Libre. However, I did grow up in a Mexican orphanage, so I guess that makes a difference.
I actually love Will Ferrell, but he falls back on the yelling shtick a bit too often for my highly refined tastes.
*tosses scarf over shoulder*
*scarf gets caught in ceiling fan*
*strangles me to death as I come really hard*
So wait . . . there is a title? Well then eff me for skimming the post.
The idea has been done before, but Adam Sandler half-assed it.
Dirty Sanchez productions doesn’t confirm or deny the rumors that Spanish-language Will Ferrell will be wearing a wily-looking and easily strokeable mustache in his upcoming project.
Only a baktag like Lince would try to hammer this forshak down our throats when he knows damn well that Lottery Ticket is coming out in two weeks AND it stars* Bill Bellamy!

I dunno. For every funny character Will has, John C. Reilly pulls off about three. If someone had any balls in Hollywood, they’d make a Dr. Steve Brule feature and let Reilly have final say on content.
I’ll give it cuatro estrellas

DERRRRPPPPPPPPPP
well maybe they can finally work in the “el poopacabra” joke will’s been working on for years.
I may not know what ‘Casa de mi padre’ means, but Anderson Silva is going to give us a vocal lesson on the Spanish word for ‘Uncle’…LIVE, at UFC 117, August 7th on PPV!
Did you guys see him at Comic-Con dressed up in a homemade MegaMind costume? Oh man, he’s so zany!
But seriously, fuck Will Ferrell.
I didn’t realize Chael Sonnen was such a fan of FD.
Dude, Chael Sonnen rapes Vince’s jerkoff couch because he loves FD so fucking hard.
Looks like someone who Fek thinks name is Tio is about to get his ass kicked.
That’s right, Ol’ Fekky knows a cushion sniffer when He sees one. If Chael Sonnen ain’t a cushion sniffer, Ol’ Fekky is a Romulan’s uncle.
I didn’t realize <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Silva"Anderson Silva spoke Spanish.
MLIFHTML.
What I’m trying to say is he’s Brazillian so he speak’s f’n Portugese.
OW!, He has no idea what that means, but encourages you to run with it.
Ers, does Chael Sonnen look like a cunning linguist to you?
Being that the fight’s in Oakland, here’s hoping that the real Bubb Rubb has ringside seats.
“The whustles goes WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”
Well awl be, them Brazilians don’t speaka da Messican after all! Good thing Chael Sonnen is that ignorant, though…
I mean, lets be honest here, when they are babbling about bags of oranges and the Virgin fucking mary, it all sounds the same, amirite?
“Casa de mi Padre,” which, if my Spanish serves me, roughly translates to “The Snakes of the Toilet.”
No, you ignorant unitedstater, it translates to House of my priest.
So I guess it´ll be translated as “church, the movie.”
Oh, I get it. He HAS to read what’s on the prompter.
Going to see it tonight at 12:01 just to watch Samuel L. Jackson yell at people.
