Nicholas Stoller is on a roll; having just finished directing Seth Rogan and Zac Efron in “Neighbors,” Stoller could be directing Rogan again for Rodney Rothman’s untitled cop comedy project. Kevin Hart will star alongside Rogan as the first African-American policeman and white policeman to become partners and engineer a jazz sting operation to take down a criminal organization dealing pot.
Stoller is the writer/director behind “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” “Get Him to the Greek” and “The Five-Year Engagement,” which were also written by Rothman. Next up for Stoller is writing the Jonah Hill/Ben Stiller project “Aloha” as well as the animated feature “Captain Underpants” starring Kevin Hart. Are you sensing a pattern here?
Stoller is repped by UTA.
