Synopsis
Only one American hero has earned the rank of Green Beret, Navy SEAL
and Army Ranger. Just one operative has been awarded 16 purple
hearts, 3 Congressional Medals of Honor and 7 presidential medals of
bravery. And only one guy is man enough to still sport a mullet. In
2010, Will Forte (BABY MAMA, THE BROTHERS SOLOMON) brings SATURDAY
NIGHT LIVE’s clueless soldier of fortune to the big screen in the
action-comedy MACGRUBER.
After the death of his fiancée, Casey (Maya Rudolph –AWAY WE GO
television’s SNL), 10 years ago, special op MacGruber has sworn
off a life of fighting crime with his bare hands and become a man of
peace. Informed by his previous commanding officer, Colonel Faith
(Powers Boothe - SIN CITY, TVs 24), that his country needs him to
find a nuclear warhead that’s been stolen by his sworn enemy,
black market arms dealer Dieter Von Cunth (Val Kilmer - KISS KISS
BANG BANG), MacGruber comes to the conclusion that he’s the only
one tough enough for the job.
Assembling an elite team of experts - Lt Dixon Piper (Ryan Phillippe
- CRASH) and Vicki St Elmo (Kristen Wiig - KNOCKED UP, WHIP IT) -
MacGruber will navigate an army of assassins to hunt down Cunth and
bring him to justice. His methods may be unorthodox. His crime
scenes may get messy. But if you want the world saved right, you
call in MacGruber.
Making his feature film directorial debut with the action-comedy is
SNL writer/director Jorma Taccone. He is joined in screenwriting
duties by Will Forte and John Solomon (television’s SNL, EXTREME
MOVIE). Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels (BABY MAMA, MEAN
GIRLS) produces the film with John Goldwyn (BABY MAMA,
television’s DEXTER).
