A feature already including Tina Fey and Steve Carell has just upped the comic ante.
In Date Night, the two NBC actors will pool their talents a married couple who get more than they had planned for during their night out. A case of mistaken identity eventually brings a long list of characters into the mix. James Franco (Pineapple Express) will play an idiotic con man, Mark Wahlberg will star as private security expert, Taraji P. Henson (Benjamin Button) will be armed as good cop while Common has been assigned the shady detective role.
Other supporting players in the all-star ensemble include SNL‘s Kristen Wiig and Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl). Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum) will direct.
Filming on the comedy begins next week.
