Seth Rogen & The Lonely Island Making Fyre Festival-Like Movie… Say wwhhatt!!!

And on a lighter note… Seth Rogen and The Lonely Island are teaming up for a movie about a music festival that goes horribly wrong. Rogen has had some big hits recently – pushing the envelope with hits like Sausage Party and college frat duology Neighbours 1, 2 – and the style of humour he helped to popularize – stoner comedy mixed with absurdist situations and characters – has started to pop up everywhere.

At the same time, comedy trio The Lonely Island – consisting of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone have also been doing their part to change the face of comedy. Having initially found success on SNL, the trio are responsible for 2007’s Hot Rod as well as last year’s Popstar.

Rogen and the team have worked together before on hilarious song “Like A Boss”, and now they’re reuniting for a full movie.

With the recent disaster of rapper Ja Rule’s (Fyre Festival) making headlines for all the bad reasons (feral dogs, Hunger Games conditions, bread and some dip!) but… both Seth Rogan and The Lonely Island took to Twitter to reveal that they are in fact, making a movie “about a music festival that goes horribly wrong.”  The announcement couldn’t have more perfect timing – so much so that The Lonely Island tweeted further confirmation.
