Bradley Cooper and Will Arnett to Partner on New Movie
After building prolific careers on their own, longtime friends Bradley Cooper and Will Arnett are set to join forces on a new collaboration. On Wednesday, reports revealed that Cooper and Arnett will be working together on a mysterious new movie titled Is This Thing On?. Both actors are expected to star in the project, which would be directed by Cooper, whose recent work behind the camera includes A Star Is Born and the upcoming Leonard Bernstein biopic Maestro. Cooper most recently appeared in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves and reprised his role as Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel Studios threequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, with Arnett's recent projects including the Max documentary SmartLess: On the Road and the upcoming TV adaptation of Twisted Metal.
The script for Is This Thing On? was reportedly co-written by Arnett and Mark Chappell, with a draft of the script being turned in before the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike. Cooper will reportedly "likely" make edits to that script once the strike is over. The plot of the film is currently unknown at this time. Cooper will also produce the project via his Lea Pictures banner, along with Arnett and Kris Thykier, with John Bishop executive producing.
What is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 about?
In Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 our beloved band of misfits are settling into life on Knowhere. But it isn't long before their lives are upended by the echoes of Rocket's turbulent past. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him on a dangerous mission to save Rocket's life-a mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.
What is Twisted Metal about?
In Peacock's Twisted Metal, a motor-mouthed outsider is offered a chance at a better life, but only if he can successfully deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. With the help of a trigger-happy car thief, he'll face savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, including a deranged clown who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck."
