MANILA, Philippines - Will Ferrell stars as has-been scientist Dr. Rick Marshall, a man with no weapons, few skills and questionable smarts who must survive an alternate universe full of marauding dinosaurs and fantastic creatures from beyond our world. Marshall has been sucked through a space-time vortex to a place of spectacular sights and super-scaled comedy known as the Land of the Lost which is due in Metro Manila theaters on Sept. 2.
Coming along with him for the adventure are crack-smart research assistant Holly (Anna Friel) and a redneck souvenirist (Danny McBride) named Will. Chased by T. rex and stalked by painfully slow reptiles known as Sleestak, Marshall, Will and Holly must rely on their only ally — a primate called Chaka (Jorma Taccone) — to navigate out of the hybrid dimension. Escape from the routine expedition gone awry and they’re heroes. Get stuck, and they’ll be permanent refugees in the Land of the Lost.
Based on the classic series created by TV icons Sid and Marty Krofft, Land of the Lost is directed by Brad Silberling and produced by Jimmy Miller and Sid and Marty Krofft. The comedy adventure is written by Chris Henchy and Dennis McNicholas.
Land Of the Lost is distributed by United International Pictures.
