Since My Name is Earl was canceled last month many have wondered what Jason Lee (Vanilla Sky) will be doing next. Well yesterday we found out. During his interview on Kevin Pollaks Chat Show director Kevin Smith (Clerks) revealed that Lee would be joining the cast of Smith’s new movie A Couple of Dicks which is currently in production in New York City. This will not be the first time that Lee and Smith have worked together. Fans of Smith’s wacky View Askewniverse know that Lee has been in every one of Smith’s films since Mallrats. However Lee did not have an appearance in Zack and Miri Make A Porno.
I am very excited for this news. I am a huge Kevin Smith fan and I have been watching the production of this film very closely. I am very pleased to hear Jason Lee is joining the cast. He is funny no matter what role he is playing in a Smith movie. Plus the cast that the film already has in place makes it possibly one of the funniest movies of 2010.
