Burger King movie is happening after all
Somehow we missed this in Monday’s Wall Street Journal piece about ABC’s caveman fever. Tucked away in the soft bits of the story is Burger King’s Russ Klein, who says we can expect a Burger King feature film shortly. The film already has a studio and a distributor, Klein says. And while he “won’t reveal the studio’s identity or the likely plot ... he says the movie could appear as early as the end of this year, with the film aimed at ‘creating a back story for the King.’ ” Presumably Crispin is involved. Now we’ll have to check on the status of G&M Plumbing’s movie, which seemed equally unlikely to happen at first. Via Consumerist.
