* It's a total SNL reunion in the upcoming comedy The Nest as Maya Rudolph has joined stars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Directed by Jason Moore (Pitch Perfect), the Fey and Poehler play two 30-something sisters who decide to throw one final bash at their childhood home upon learning it's been put up for sale. James Brolin is set to play the father, while Neighbors scene-stealer Ike Barinholz will take the male lead with Rudolph as a childhood friend. Rudolph will film The Nest before moving on to join The Greens Are Gone, an indie drama directed by Peer Pederson and starring Catherine Keener. [THR]
* Sacha Baron Cohen has rounded up a pair of funny ladies of his own for Grimsby, the spy spoof he'll be starring in alongside Mark Strong. Rebel Wilson and Cohen's wife Isla Fisher have joined the film which has Strong as an elite spy forced to team up with his football hooligan brother, played by Cohen of course. Ian McShane, Johnny Vegas, Gabourey Sidibe, and Annabelle Wallis co-star with Phil Johnston (Wreck-It Ralph), Peter Baynham (Borat), and Cohen having provided the screenplay. This will be the first time Cohen and Fisher have teamed up on a project and hopefully it works out well enough that it won't be the last.
