Just last week we brought you an update on a movie that most of the comedy team Broken Lizard would be involved in called The Babymaker. Now yet again there is another bit of news regarding the Broken Lizard team, this time on a film called Taildraggers, which is aiming to get Broken Lizard director Jay Chandrasekhar on board as well as the rest of the team.

The film revolves around five aimless twenty-somethings who work as pilots for a rickety puddle-jumper airline in the Alaskan wilderness. The action starts when they discover that a competing airline is involved in a plot to siphon oil from a nature preserve. It sounds like an awesome comedy is in the works here, especially for the Broken Lizard team. Although no deals are signed, the project is out to Broken Lizard and Warner Brothers as a first look deal for them to star in as well as for Chandrasekhar to direct. If all goes well, we could expect this possibly in 2008 or maybe even 2009.

I'm not sure what happened to all over Broken Lizard's other projects, including Super Troopers 2, but it seems plenty of other features have come up instead. And for those who are still lost on Broken Lizard, they're the team of actors, writers, and a director that have put out Super Troopers, Club Dread, and Beerfest together so far.
