It looks like Ryan
Reynolds has signed up for yet another comedy and this time with the people who brought us Super Troopers-- Broken Lizard. If my memory serves me correctly, we can now expect Reynolds in the next year or so to appear in Smokin' Aces,
Blowback, Ride Along,Chaos Theory and now Beerfest; talk about a lot of Wilder.
Reynolds Does Beerfest
According to Joblo, Ryan Reynolds has teamed up with Broken Lizard to begin filming Beerfest as soon as this upcoming January. With a schedule like he has got, I guess he has to film in any window available.
BEERFEST, the next film from we're-not-a-comedy-troupe comedy troupe Broken Lizard will begin filming in January and JoBlo.com has learned that they're bringing Ryan Reynolds along for the ride. Reynolds will star with the five members of Lizard - Erik Stolhanske, Paul Soter, Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan and Steve Lemme - in the film that has been described as FIGHT CLUB with beer. As I said of the film in an earlier article, "BEERFEST is a heartwarming saga of two brothers who go to Oktoberfest and stumble upon a super-secret centuries-old beer games competition. These guys get their asses kicked by the Germans, and come back to America, where they assemble the greatest collection of all-star beer games dudes, in order to go back to Germany and kick the shit out of the Germans."
The film sounds like it should be right up Ryan Reynolds alley and it would be nice to see Broken Lizard serve up a film closer to the stature of Super Troopers instead of Club Dread.
