Jorma Taccone Reveals Rejected ‘MacGruber 2’ Pitch & Teases a Broadway Musical [Exclusive]

Bill Hader, along with Will Forte and John Solomon, created the character MacGruber as a spoof of action heroes from 1980s and 90s TV shows like MacGyver, known for its resourceful protagonist. The character started as popular sketches on Saturday Night Live and eventually became a feature film in 2010, joining a small group of SNL creations like Wayne’s World and A Night at the Roxbury to make the jump to the big screen. Although the movie wasn’t a huge box office success – it earned $9.3 million worldwide on a $10 million budget – it has since developed a dedicated fan base. People appreciate its silly and often immature humor, and many consider it a hidden comedic treasure.

Justice League Member Turns Evil in Surprising DC Change

The shocking reveal of a hero turned villain happened in New Titans #34, written by Tate Brombal and illustrated by Sami Basri. The previous issue left the Titans stuck repeating the same events, forcing them to relive battles and personal struggles. The issue concluded with what seemed like the deaths of Donna Troy and Arsenal, and introduced new heroes Jon Kent, Wonder Girl, Batgirl, and Kid Devil.

Most regular Pokémon Trainers, Gym Leaders, and Team members share similar music, but many important characters have unique themes that fit their personalities, beliefs, and role in the game’s story.

The Boys Showrunner Breaks Down Homelander’s Jesus Moment After Trump AI Post

The third episode of the series, titled “Every One of You Sons of Bitches,” features the villain Homelander starting to see himself as a messianic figure, much like Jesus. While this fits with his already inflated ego, the timing is notable, as a similar AI-generated image of Donald Trump as Jesus circulated online just days before. However, according to creator Eric Kripke, this storyline wasn’t inspired by current events; the episode was actually written before the election.

Who Is Taskmaster’s Oscar-Winning Future Contestant?

If you’re looking for a celebrity who’d be perfect for the show Taskmaster, Olivia Colman immediately comes to mind. Before winning an Oscar for The Favourite, she was a well-known comedic actress in the UK, appearing on shows like That Mitchell and Webb Look, Peep Show, and Would I Lie to You?. In fact, she’s arguably more popular now. Taskmaster usually films in large batches, but the live portions require some interaction, and Colman might prefer to stay based in London. Another great choice would be Emma Thompson – she’s a Cambridge Footlights alum and naturally funny. Could Helen Mirren do it? Probably not, though her surprising role in the Fast & Furious films suggests she might be open to anything, and perhaps willing to cause some chaos in the Taskmaster house.
