HOLY SHIT - Will Ferrell's Production Company Is Making A US Version Of Aussie TV Series, 'No Activity'

No Activity is a freakin' funny TV show and now it's about to get the Hollywood treatment. 

It has been confirmed today that Will Ferrell's production company, Gary Sanchez, will produce a US version of the Stan comedy series with the Sydney-based Jungle team, in association with CBS Television Studios. 

The eight-part series will begin shooting in late 2017, with No Activity creator Trent O'Donnell and lead star Patrick Brammall confirmed as showrunners and executive producers. 

Jungle's Jason Burrows and Joe Farrell will also serve as executive producers. 

No Activity has enjoyed two successful seasons in Australia on Stan, along with an impressive cast that includes Tim Minchin, Sam Simmons, Harriet Dyer and Darren Gilshenan.

No word yet on how much Ferrell himself will take part in the production of the show, but there is no doubt that No Activity, which is yet to announce a third season, is about to get a lot of new fans.

The announcement follows news that Stan have commenced production of six-part drama series, Romper Stomper, which will continue the story of the 1992 Aussie film which starred Russell Crowe.
