As far as I’m concerned, everything that McKay and Ferrell say about the story for the upcoming Anchorman 2 is suspect at best, because they’re most definitely of the sort that will screw with us just because they can. They’ve even mentioned the possibility that the film would be a musical at one point. The movie is happening, Rudd and Carrell are back, too. That’s about all we will know for some time. However, this is what McKay said to Salon the other day.
Can you give us a hint about what you’re thinking of having Ron Burgundy do in “Anchorman 2”?
I don’t want to give away too much, but I’ll just give a couple pieces of ideas that we’ve kicked around. Keep in mind we’re still writing the story, but I’ll say one phrase for you: custody battle. I’ll give you that. I’ll give you one other one: bowling for dollars.
