IFC has ordered a second round of Funny Or Die’s epic storytelling from the “Spoils” franchise. Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's The Spoils of Babylon, a spoof of 70s novel-based TV miniseries, starred Tobey Maguire and Kristen Wiig (and guest stars aplenty). Ferrell himself starred as the Spoils' narrator, author Eric Jonrosh.
The newest season (ahem, adaptation of an "epic Eric Jonrosh novel") will be The Spoils Before Dying - set to premiere Summer 2015 with six brand-new episodes. To be produced by Funny or Die and executive produced by Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, Matt Piedmont, Andrew Steele and Nate Young.
Will Ferrell's Jonrosh will be returning as the wine-loving bon vivant who opens and closes each riveting episode with his personal insight. A new all-star cast will round out the comedic miniseries, which will take viewers into the seedy underbelly of the 1950s jazz scene, in a detective story positively buzzing with erotic charge. It follows a jazz-pianist turned private eye who becomes embroiled in a murder investigation that spins out of control and leads him down paths – romantic and otherwise – he never expected.
