Adam Sandler replaces Mark Wahlberg in Will Ferrell's comedy, Three Mississippi. Clevver Movies has the scoop. Vulture reveals all the shake ups involved with the addition of Sandler to Three Mississippi. The comedy was originally supposed to star Will Ferrell, Alec Baldwin and Mark Wahlberg with Adam McKay directing. Now Wahlberg and McKay are out and who knows about Baldwin. These latest cast changes certainly weave from the original idea for the comedy. The story is about two rival families, assuming in-laws, playing football at Thanksgiving with one family the perennial loser. Ferrell's producing partners, Owen Burke and Adam McKay, wanted to find a way to reteam Alec Baldwin and Mark Wahlberg to re-create their banter from The Departed. Baldwin would have played Wahlberg's dad. They took the project to Warner Bros. and attached 30 Rock executive producer Robert Carlock and Friends executive producer Scott Silveri. The shake ups are partly due to Paramount's sudden agreement to do an Anchorman sequel and scheduling filming for early next year. This of course compromises Adam McKay's availability since he would be directing two films at once, which is impossible. The Anchorman announcement also compromises Wahlberg's availability. Wahlberg's obligation to the new shooting schedule for Lone Survivor now conflicts with the Anchorman shoot, which further compromises the shooting schedule for Three Mississippi. The movie is another Ferrell pet project scheduled to begin filming this fall, and he didn't want to delay it since studios were ready to go. So, Wahlberg's out. Luckily for the Thanksgiving family film, the Sandler-Anders addition brings another good comedy pair that simply replaces the Ferrell-McKay pair. Do you think these changes will bring as good of laughs if McKay and Wahlberg had stayed on? How do you feel about seeing Sandler and Ferrell act together?
