The Hollywood Reporter said that the movie will be broken into four 20-minute shorts, like the original Stooges did in their early days.
The first short will depict the Stooges as kids.MGM hasn't said who will play the iconic roles of Larry, Moe and Curly.The Farrellys, who co-write and co-direct their films, most recent made "The Heartbreak Kid" with their "There's Something About Mary" star Ben Stiller.The brothers have also made such hits as "Kingpin," "Me, Myself and Irene" and "Shallow Hal."The new Stooges movie is on a fast track to be in theaters Nov. 20 of next year.
