Will Ferrell has just boosted his creds with his leftist Hollywood peers by agreeing to play Ronald Reagan in a comedy mocking the former president’s struggles with the early stages of Alzheimer’s. According to a report by Variety published Wednesday, Ferrell is now officially attached to both star in and produce “Reagan,” based off a Black List script by Mike Rosolio that has recently created a buzz among the Reagan-resenting Hollywood elites.
Variety describes the story as beginning at the start of Reagan’s second term “when he falls into dementia and an ambitious intern is tasked with convincing the commander in chief that he is an actor playing the president in a movie.”
