Zach Galifianakis Is On The Road For The Between Two Ferns Movie Trailer

Taking any show from series form to movie can be a tricky proposition, but a cheap-as-chips chat show web series that relies on Zach Galifianakis' laconic interviewing style? That's a whole other idea. Yet it's one that Galifianakis and writer/director Scott Aukerman are attempting with Between Two Ferns: The Movie.



To expand the show out for its big scree... sorry, Netflix debut later this month, there's a vague story stitched on to the idea of Zach chatting with famous types. It posits that Will Ferrell took Zach's public access show and stuffed it onto comedy web portal Funny Or Die (which he co-founded and is in fact the home of Ferns). After an incident that nearly drowns Matthew McConaughey, Ferrell demands some more content, so Galifianakis and a small team head out on the road to complete a series of high-profile celebrity interviews to restore his reputation (and hopefully score him a network talk show – after all, he's white, straight and a man and he deserves it, in his opinion). Cue abject chaos, awkward silences and some contractual mangling of Benedict Cumberbatch's name.

We can expect to see the likes of Keanu Reeves, Brie Larson, Jon Hamm, Chrissy Teigen, David Letterman and more show up to face Zach's less-than-professional attitude to interviewing.

The movie hits Netflix on 20 September.
