Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly Team Up for Absurd Rap Album
When Step Brothers director Adam McKay tweeted earlier this week that Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly would reprise their characters on a forthcoming rap album, it was reasonable to assume that it was some kind of weird joke. But as it turns out, it’s a weird joke that’s actually happening.
McKay has since confirmed the project, tweeting, “I wasn’t kidding about Step Brothers rap album. And we just found out we have a crazy big time producer.” No further details have surfaced.
In Step Brothers, a deeply strange and generally underrated comedy from 2008, Ferrell and Reilly play grown men who clash when their parents get married. After the two bond, they form a rap duo known as Huff N’ Doback.
