Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum’s Gloria Sanchez Productions has signed a multi-year nonexclusive  first look TV deal with Netflix, according to Deadline. 

“We’re thrilled to continue to build upon Gloria Sanchez’s strong slate of female-driven storytelling at the highest level,” Ferrell and Elbaum said in a statement. “While celebrating that brand mission, we are excited to expand our scope to include many brilliant creators and storytellers with projects in all genres and content platforms. Both Netflix and Paramount share our vision of bringing audiences the quality that they deserve, making them dream partners in our new venture. We can’t wait to get to work.”

Gloria Sanchez produces the Christina Applegate-led dark comedy Dead to Me. It also produced Eurovision, starring Ferrell and Rachel McAdams, which is set to premiere on Netflix this May.

The company has also signed a separate multi-year feature deal with Paramount and named Brittney Segal as Head of TV and David Koplan as Head of Film respectively.

The Golden Globes kick off festivities every year, with this year’s ceremony taking place even earlier than usual on January 5. The Beverley Hills Hilton will be the venue for the glitzy event, which is often regarded as an office party, where everyone gets a little tipsy thanks to the bottles of booze on the tables. 

Ricky Gervais will be returning to hosting duties, even though he swore he never would (he promises that this is definitely his last time…), but the night is renowned for having various celebrities grace the stage to present awards. 

This year’s batch is set to include Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Tiffany Haddish, Charlize Theron, Will Ferrell, Tim Allen, Christian Bale, Antonio Banderas, Jason Bateman, Cate Blanchett, Matt Bomer, Pierce Brosnan, Glenn Close, Daniel Craig, Ted Danson, Ansel Elgort, Chris Evans, Dakota Fanning, Lauren Graham, Kit Harington, Salma Hayek, Scarlett Johansson, Elton John, Nick Jonas, Zoe Kravitz, Jennifer Lopez, Rami Malek, Kate McKinnon, Jason Momoa, Helen Mirren, Gwyneth Paltrow, Amy Poehler, Margot Robbie, Paul Rudd, Wesley Snipes, Octavia Spencer, Sofia Vergara, Kerry Washington, Naomi Watts, and Rachel Weisz.

And don’t be fooled — with the After Life actor around, no one is safe!

The pair have been announced as planning to star in a retelling of one of the most classic films of all time, A Christmas Carol.

The Charles Dickens novel follows Ebenezer Scrooge — a bitter, selfish old man who, on Christmas Eve, is visited by the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future. The experience then transforms him into a much kinder individual.

The story has been retold numerous times in many forms, with recent versions including a one-man play starring Simon Callow, a Disney 3D animation with Jim Carrey as Scrooge, and another animated version starring The Muppets.

The upcoming adaptation will be written by Tom Stoppard and Bennett Miller, with it not yet confirmed which characters Reynolds and Ferrell will play.

Ferrell will headline in a new Eurovision song contest comedy for the streaming giant. 

The comedy will be co-written by Ferrell himself alongside Andrew Steele. Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum will produce for Gary Sanchez Productions, and Adam McKay will serve as executive producer.

Apparently, Ferrell is a real-life fan of the musical competition ever since his Swedish wife introduced him to it. 

While the musical fixture might not be big in the US, it most definitely is across the Atlantic, so it seems that this is an attempt by Netflix to create content that will appeal to its international subscribers. 

This project will be the second feature-length production the actor has collaborated on with the streaming service. Just last month Ibiza was released on the platform, a comedy he produced starring Gillian Jacobs. 

Time to warm up those vocal chords!

The House actor was returning from a Funny or Die comedy event when the Lincoln Navigator in which Will was being driven was rear-ended by a Toyota Highlander.

The collision, which occurred along the Orange County I-5 Highway in California, resulted in the 50-year-old’s vehicle flipping over.

In addition to Will, three other riders were rushed to hospital following the incident.

Despite the severity of the actor’s injuries not being made public, witnesses spotted him on the phone while entering the ambulance on a stretcher, confirming that he was at least conscious and able to talk.

Reports have claimed that the driver of the other vehicle fell asleep at the wheel—the accident occurred at around 10:50pm— but that no alcohol or drugs were involved.

Will’s manager confirmed to Deadline that he has been released following a brief hospitalization.

We have to say that this incident was definitely not funny. And we’re super glad that no one died.
