Bob Odenkirk Reuniting With BETTER CALL SAUL Co-Stars in Comedy Movie THE MAKING OF JESUS DIABETES
The Breaking Bad prequel series Better Call Saul just came to an end, but the show’s star, Bob Odenkirk, is soon reuniting with two of his co-stars, Andrew Friedman (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) and Michael Naughton (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia). The pair will co-star with Odenkirk in a new film titled The Making of Jesus Diabetes, and they will be writing the picture as well.
Heath Cullens (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) will direct the movie, “which chronicles the story of two reclusive, middle-aged brothers with no filmmaking experience who are attempting to make a movie about diabetes, during Jesus’ time, to honor their recently deceased mother. All the while, the brothers’ madcap journey is being filmed by their neighbor.”
The project originated from characters Naughton and Friedman created at The Groundlings Theater. They will reprise their lead roles as Gerry and Seymour Whitaker, while Odenkirk is attached in a supporting role as Leo, a shifty man with a dark past. Filming is expected to begin first-quarter 2023.
I absolutely cannot wait to see how this turns out. It sounds seriously hilarious. We will keep you posted as it develops.
