George Clooney and Sony Pictures have optioned the book Dangerously Funny: The Uncensored Story Of The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, the story of the classic 1967-69 CBS show and Tom and Dicky Smothers’ journey “from squeaky clean comics to counterculture troublemakers.” Intriguing! It’s unclear if Clooney would star, but Fantasy Dreamworld Casting, Inc. is very interested in John Mulaney as Dicky and Seth Meyers as Tom. Fred Armisen can play young Steve Martin, who’s probably gonna be in this movie too.
