David Duchovny and Ben Stiller are set to star in the new project “The TV Set”. Ya ya I know… a lot of people hate Ben Stiller. I still really like his stuff though. Yes he’s done some REALLY bad films… but he’s still put together some movies that I still laugh my ass off at (Zoolander is one that comes to mind).
And even though I wasn’t a huge X-Files fan, I became a big David Duchovny fan after seeing him in Return To Me (one of the best romantic comedies I’ve ever seen). Duchovny showed a range that I didn’t think he was capable of in that film. His small part in Zoolander was hilarious too.
The good folks over at M&C have provided us with this little synopsis of The TV Set:
The TV Set will follow Dave (Duchovny), who has a pregnant wife, a skinflint mother and a lot of expenses. He should be happy that he has just sold a television pilot. But the path to the production includes a tumble down a rabbit hole of dimwitted executives, talentless stars and micro-managing suits who seem determined to remove any hint of creativity out of Dave’s work.
Yeah I’ll be lined up to see this one… why not?
