LAND OF THE LOST Photos
Will Ferrell, Anna Friel, and Danny McBride star as, respectively, has-been scientist Dr. Rick Marshall, research assistant Holly, and redneck survivalist Will in the big-screen remake of the mid-70s television series Land of the Lost, a campy delight after all these years. (Spunky Cha-Ka to Holly after she messes things up: "Cha-Ka half-monkey. You whole monkey.")
The new Land of the Lost was directed by Brad Silberling, best known for Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, and written by Chris Henchy and Dennis McNicholas.
Land of the Lost opens in the US on June 5.
The original TV series starred Spencer Milligan, Wesley Eure, Kathy Coleman, and Philip Paley (as Cha-Ka).
