Justin Theroux will be Zooey Deschanel’s villain in the movie Your Highness directed by David Gordon Green.
Theroux joins Danny McBride, James Franco, Natalie Portman and Zooey Deschanel in the story that follows an arrogant, lazy prince (McBride) who must complete a mission to save his father’s kingdom. Theroux will play Leezar, an evil wizard with a bejeweled magical staff who kidnaps a princess (Deschanel).
The film, will shoot in Ireland, was written by Ben Best and McBride, who also is producing.
Theroux is a versatile artist who starred in a couple of television shows, and then directed Dedication, which I thought was a great independent movie. Next, he teamed up with Ben Stiller and Etan Cohen to write Tropic Thunder, and then worked on Iron Man 2. Now, he is back in front of the camera with Highness. I wonder if he’ll be doing rewrites on the set with McBride; it’s hard not to once you written a couple of scripts. Right Justin?
