The upcoming biopic will draw inspiration from the book titled “The Chris Farley Show: A Biography in Three Acts” authored by Farley’s brother, Tom Farley Jr., and Tanner Colby.
Lorne Michaels, the creator of “Saturday Night Live” who originally cast Farley in the sketch-comedy show during the 1990s, is currently producing the movie.
Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber are currently working on the screenplay.
Tragically, Farley passed away at the young age of 33 due to a drug overdose in December 1997.
He has appeared in movies such as “Tommy Boy,” “Black Sheep,” and “Beverly Hills Ninja.”
Hauser, who is 37 years old, has gained recognition for his notable performances in a variety of films and TV shows. Some of his well-known roles include appearances in movies such as “I, Tonya,” “Richard Jewell,” “The Afterparty,” “Cobra Kai,” “Cruella,” and “Black Bird.”
