Last year we had The Other Guys and now it seems we're getting the B Team, although while the former was about cops, this new movie follows spies who aren't normally on the frontline. Variety reports that Seth Rogen has signed on to produce and possibly star in the movie for Walt Disney Pictures.
The project has been in development at Disney since July 2008 when the studio acquired a pitch from writers Derek Guiley and David Schneiderman. The story centres on a spy who is captured, and must rely on his tech support and research team to rescue him, even though they're not used to being so important.
Seth Rogen has executive produced several of his starring vehicles, including Knocked Up, Superbad, Pineapple Express, Funny People, The Green Hornet, and his upcoming comedy My Mother's Curse. It isn't known when The B Team might film.
