A self-proclaimed Biblical archeologist played by Sam Rockwell is the protagonist in Don Verdean, a new comedy directed by Jared Hess, the same guy behind Napoleon Dynamite (2004).
I’ll be watching because of Jermaine Clement, Sam Rockwell and Danny McBride. In case you were wondering, Clement does in fact sound like Sacha Baron Cohen’s Borat (2006).

7 Days In Hell is HBO’s new sports comedy/TV movie starring Andy Samberg, Kit Harrington, Mary Steenburgen, Fred Armisen and many more including Serena Williams and John McEnroe who play versions of themselves.
Shot in the style of a documentary expose, the TV movie focuses on the rivalry between two fictional tennis players, known to be the greatest of all time and their 2004 match that lasted 7 days. All very nuts, yes, but in the very best way.
All I know of Kit Harrington is that he is/was in that massively successful TV Show, Game Of Thrones, a series I’m still yet to watch, but something tells me that his Seven Days In Hell character, Charles Poole is very different to Jon Snow in an exciting way.
I’m expecting great performances from the entire cast, but besides Harrington’s character, I really hope there’s plenty of Fred Armisen as the Tennis Historian because my, that accent is really rather good and brilliantly entertaining.
Happy Film Loving,
