Charlie Day is perennially executive producing, writing and acting in the cult favorite It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, currently airing on FX for its 15th season. To give the synopsis provided is laughable. Here we go! “Five friends with big egos and small brains are the proprietors of an Irish pub in Philadelphia.” Fot those that have followed the epics highs and lows of Sweet Dee (Kaitlin Olson), Charlie (Charlie Day), Dennis (Glenn Howerton), Mac (Rob McElhenney), Frank (Danny DeVito) and the waitress (Mary Elizabeth Ellis), fans know a thesis is in order to descibe the one-of-a-kind show.
Jenny Slate was busy this summer celebrating the success of her Marcel the Shell with Shoes On feature debut. The stop-motion Marcel the Shell sensation hit the scene 10 years ago lighting up YouTube with the 3 short films getting over 50 million views. The curious and delightful shell is the star of the feature length mockumentary Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, taking a deep dive into the world’s favorite sneakers-sporting shell with a heart of gold. They even have a new mollusk family member, as they introduce Nana Connie portrayed by Isabella Rossellini. If you’re not familar with the adorable shell, here’s a taste!
The official synopsis has us jumping into the present as “Marcel follows down-and-out documentary filmmaker Dean (played by Fleischer Camp, who also serves as the film’s co-writer and director), who moves into an Airbnb and quickly discovers that he’s not alone. Marcel (Slate, who also co-wrote the screenplay), an adorable one-inch-tall shell, already lives there with his grandmother Connie (Isabella Rossellini) and their pet lint, Alan.” The good news? A24 just picked up the rights last month, so maybe we’ll see it released soon!
