The Farrelly brothers, known for hits like Me, Myself & Irene, Hall Pass, and The Three Stooges (2012), are working on a Broadway musical adaptation of the 1998 rom-com There's Something About Mary. They compared their project to the hit Broadway musical The Book of Mormon and plan to debut the musical by next year.
One of Ben Stiller 's most iconic films is being reimagined in a brand-new way. Bobby Farrelly revealed that he and Peter Farrelly, aka the Farrelly brothers, are working together to adapt the 1998 rom-com There's Something About Mary as a Broadway musical.
They've been working on the stage adaptation for a while and compared the endeavor to the hit Broadway musical The Book of Mormon. The filmmaking duo acknowledged that Broadway musicals take a long time to create, but they hope that their There's Something About Mary musical will debut by next year.
Looking back on their time directing There's Something About Mary, Farrelly contrasted it with the current environment, stating that not as many comedies are being made nowadays, and when they do get made, they're usually smaller-budgeted things because the studios don't support them like they used to. They hope that movie studios start investing in comedies again, which will give them and their brother a chance to keep working together outside of the musical
