Comedy Actors Take Over Screenwriting Duties


 


 


 




 


 


 


The best comedy actors often write their own material and that is certainly the case with two of this issues best features. First, Eastbound & Down's Danny McBride goes medieval on us with Your Highness, a film he had to write mostly in his trailers on other films.

Hear his insightful thoughts on writing for budget and his role as the film's executive producer often clashed with his role as the screenwriter.
