British sketch comedy "Little Britain" is being turned into a US feature film via Ben Stiller's Red Hour Films.
Creators & stars Matt Lucas and David Walliams have just finished penning a script for the film that sets the action in Las Vegas. "We’re really happy with it, but the whole film project is still kind of dependent on how much we can raise our profiles in America" says Walliams.
The big question is which of their famous creations will be included whether it be 'the only gay in the village' Daffyd Thomas, Emily 'I'm a lady' Howard, obese socialite Bubbles DeVere, militant diet PR woman Marjorie Dawes, or the brattish Vicky Pollard.
Walliams says "We do have some new ideas for characters — a mum feeding her son to make him the fattest boy in America, a psycho American girlfriend, but without the bunnies, a woman who has everything Disney themed, and some annoying Scottish air hostesses."
A second season of "Little Britain USA" is in the works this Fall but the format of their airing has yet to be decided.
