David Gordon Green sticks with comedy



Erstwhile indie hero and LR native David Gordon Green continues (fingers-crossed) making subversive studio comedies. Variety reports that Green is set to direct "Your Highness," a comedy about "an arrogant, lazy prince who must complete a quest to save his father's kingdom."

Jody Hill, who very probably is about to be the next big comedy star (upcoming: "Pineapple Express," "The Foot Fist Way" and the HBO pilot "East Bound and Down"), stars. He and Ben Best co-wrote the screenplay together.
