Will Ferrell is taking on a serious-comedy role from the writer of Hancock.  He is attached to 2-Face.

Vince Gilligan’s script, which has had a long gestation period, involves a character with a split personality: One part is a racist, and the other is a bleeding-heart liberal.

The story’s socially relevant hook gives the role added heft. Ferrell has tried his hand at more serious roles, most markedly Stranger Than Fiction.
