"The Hangover" director is intent on a biopic about the famous SNL comedian. Personally, I don't know about this. Will a comedic director focus on comedy or the reality of the story ? I question as much because I don't know Todd Phillips' work. I love the idea of Jack Black as Belushi but he seems to have no interest. I think Jonah Hill would be the proper fit.
Also on a side note, I always thought that if Belushi was born 50 to 55 years earlier he would have made an amazing silent comedian.
