Sean Penn has been cast in The Three Stooges. This would be great news if Sean Penn was funny.
But Sean Penn is not. Sean Penn is the most serious person in the world.
Maybe Sean Penn's plan is to encompass every type of pain a human can experience. We all know that drama can hurt, but comedy can literally crush your soul. He must know that there's a banana peel waiting to take him down and break his tailbone. That's real pain right there. That's range.
Actually, the more I think about it, the more the I'm looking forward to the most serious person in the world getting smacked in the face. That's seriously funny. Nyuk nyuk nyuk.
