File this under WTF? Sean Penn has just signed on with the Farrelly Bros. to play Larry in The Three Stooges, Variety reports. Jim Carrey is in negotiations to play Curly, which means he'd have to gain half an Olsen twin in weight, and Benicio Del Toro is being eyed for Moe. The planned film is not a biopic; rather, it's an "updated take" on the classic Three Stooges productions.
I mean Sean Penn is a great dramatic actor, sure, maybe a little over the top, but to play a STOOGE? I dunno. I guess we'll see. What do you folks think?
