FIRST LOOK
Another First Look at Will Ferrell in Land of the Lost

Although we've seen some photos of Will Ferrell dressed up for Land of the Lost before, we haven't seen anything quite like this. I unfortunately missed the presentation for this movie at Comic-Con so I didn't get a chance to see any of the footage. I can't quite say I'm looking forward to it yet, but this new photo does at least make me smile. This originated as part of the LA Times' Comic-Con coverage, but it was Collider who brought it to our attention recently. In April we debuted the first photos of the Sleestaks in this remake, but the one Ferrell is standing with below is named Enik and is a Sleestak that guards a time portal in the original series and could talk and wear clothes, unlike the other bad Sleestaks.
You can check out the latest Land of the Lost photo below. We're still waiting to see the first trailer as well.
Land of the Lost is directed by Brad Silberling, of Casper, Lemony Snicket, and 10 Items or Less previously. "Saturday Night Live" writer Dennis McNicholas and "Entourage" writer Chris Henchy penned the script for this film, which is a remake of a 1970's TV show of the same name. Land of the Lost hits theaters everywhere next summer on July 17th, 2009.

Looks like he's going to be tapping back into the craziness he used as Federal Wildlife Marshal Willenholly (which incidently was a great play on the names of the characters from the show). Here's hoping zany works for this role.

This will either be surprisingly really good or the second coming of Howard the Duck! Actually I hate when comic actors turned properties that should be played straight and then make the material comedic. That's why I hate Starsky and Hutch. That show was not a comedy but an action buddy cop drama.

I love how they are using rubber suits and stuff for this, it will only add to the joke I hope. 🙂

I'm completely unfamiliar with this show...but I do know of a 90's show with the same name. Intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lqhof8OvyAI Is the 90's show a remake of this 70's show? I don't remember anything resembling these Sleestak things in the 90's show.
