FIST FIGHT
Chanel Celaya is the latest to join the Charlie Day/Ice Cube-led comedy Fist Fight. Christina Hendricks, Dean Norris, Jillian Bell, and Tracy Morgan make up the cast of the schoolyard brawl pic.
Hendricks joins the schoolyard comedy, which already boasts Charlie Day, Ice Cube and the return of Tracy Morgan after being injured in a car accident over a year ago.
After over a year in recovery and a spectacular reception at the Emmys last night, Morgan has made significant progress and is ready to start taking on gigs again.
Produced by New Line, the schoolyard comedy follows an amiable English teacher (Day) who’s challenged to an after-school fight by one of his fellow teachers (Cube), who thinks that the other is trying to get him canned.

New Line Cinema and 21 Laps Entertainment are developing schoolyard comedy Fist Fight, with Charlie Day attached to star. Originally pitched by Max Greenfield of New Girl fame, the film tells the story of two high school teachers who face off against each other in a legendary fist-fight.
Logline: Kept under wraps but said to revolve around an epic fistfight between two high school teachers set against the backdrop of the broken-down school system.
