Domhnall Gleeson To Play National Lampoon Co-Founder In Netflix's A Futile And Stupid Gesture


Star Wars and Ex Machina actor Domhnall Gleeson is joining Will Forte in Netflix's A Futile And Stupid Gesture, a drama about the founders of the National Lampoon, and its rise from a comedy magazine in the late '60s to a major force in the '70s and '80s with such films as Animal House, Caddyshack, and Vacation.

Forte is set to play Doug Kenney, while Gleeson is currently working on a deal to play Henry Beard, one of the co-founders of the comedy magazine alongside Kenney and Robert Hoffman.

Wet Hot American Summer co-creator David Wain is attached to direct A Futile And Stupid Gesture from a script written by former Harvard Lampoon editors Michael Colton and John Aboud based on a book by Josh Karp.
