SNL, Monty Python and the Knights who say... NO!

New York, NY - Bill Murray and John Cleese together? Will Ferrell? And Jude Law? Is possible to say… NI! As we know Terry Gilliam is broke, and the studio is forcing him to co-direct the Holy Grail remake with Terry Jones ‘Not in a f***ing million years’ said the co-director at the pre-production. But we know who always wins… don’t we, Mr.Gilliam?

If Terry Gilliam is in it, I’m out’ said Mr.Cleese. ‘If John Cleese is out, I quit’ also affirmed Jude Law. Bill Murray reportedly said that if Terry Gilliam won’t direct this film, he’d abandon the ship. When asked, Michael Palin and Jon Lovitz said that no one will quit: ‘we are all penniless... we need the job.

Terry Jones accepted the co-direction if Terry Gilliam doesn’t come across his own vision for the remake ‘all he has to do is to shut up’ Jones said. Mr.Gilliam responded ‘that’s ok, that is fine by me, really, I’ll just make the Intro’; but the Intro is budgeted at 50 million dollars, three times the cost of the rest of the movie.

The main issue is who will take King Arthur’s hole, played by Graham Chapman in the original: ‘who cares? I’m here just for the bloody money’ said Mr.Cleese. Eric Idle affirmed that they already have someone in mind: ‘remember that Japanese guy from Heroes? We are considering him’ between the shouts of the first meeting, Eric Idle completes: ‘we respect each other profoundly, but that not means that I am unarmed. Look here, fits in my pocket so I can shoot them if I need... and no one will think it was me. They are the maniacs, I'm the nice one. I'm the singing guy’ he said quietly to us.
