The production company behind the TV series Bones has announced a biopic on Wikileaks founder Julian Assange. It will be a thriller—a "suspenseful drama with a global impact". But who's going to play Julian Assange?

This Four Lions bomb is about to drop (in theaters!), and it looks really good. But is a comedy about terrorism too soon? No, because it captures humor in a might-be-insensitive-but-not-really-it's-making-fun-of-terrorists-not-victims-so-take-that-stick-outta-your-ass kinda way. Trailer inside.

If there was ever a subject that doesn't translate well to comedy, it's the life of a suicide bomber. Yet somehow Britain's Chris Morris is able to twist this horrific act of violence into an absurdist comedy of errors.

We're of the opinion that English performer Chris Morris is the funniest man on the planet, so the news that he's working on a new program is immensely satisfying to us. We can't wait to BitTorrent this thing, because they never show him on TV over here. [Guardian]
