Your Highness (Green, 2010): Natalie Portman, Danny McBride & James Franco
From Variety:
Natalie Portman will star with Danny McBride and James Franco in "Your Highness," a Universal Pictures comedy that begins production in July in Ireland. David Gordon Green ("Pineapple Express") is directing.
Scott Stuber is producing through his U-based banner.
McBride, who wrote the script with Ben Best, plays an arrogant lazy prince who with his brother (Franco) must complete a quest to save the kingdom and his brother's fiance. Portman will play a warrior princess that the lazy prince falls in love with.
McBride and Best set up the project with U and Stuber last year. Jon Mone and Andy Davis are exec producers.

Based on who's involved, I expected this to be about weed again. Still sounds pretty sweet. I'll watch just about anything with McBride.

via chud.com:
Those of us not named Devin Faraci haven't been lucky enough to get a glimpse of Your Highness. The rest of us are waiting impatiently for a trailer, and biding our time until April 8, 2011.
But those who want to go the extra mile and visit their comic shop in March will actually get a sneak peek. Sean Phillips announced today that Dark Horse will be publishing a Your Highness one-shot. The gloriously Labyrinth-esque cover is to your right.
(Still no leather-clad Natalie Portman, though. She's not in this part of the story, I guess. Sorry, guys.)
Here's the official story synopsis for Your Highness, the comic: Prince Fabious is the pride of his kingdom—his exploits are the stuff of legend. To keep the kingdom of Mourne safe from the vicious wizard Leezar’s minions he will have to slay a rampaging Cyclops, which has already destroyed a village! In the meantime, Prince Thadeous, Fabious’ brother, and royal embarrassment, embarks on a diplomatic mission to the Dwarf Kingdom. All he needs to secure peace with the dwarves is obtain a simple signature. But when Thadeous decides to partake in the Dwarf Kingdom’s kind herb and show them who the life of the party is, he may be the spark that sets off a war and be its first casualty! These stories lead directly up to the events at the beginning of Your Highness, the movie!
It written by Danny McBride and Jeff Fradley, penciled by Phillips and inked by Paul Peart. It will be hitting shelves on March 2, 2011.
I think you can expect epic Red Sonja style boobage. And probably a really funny story, too.

I hate Danny McBride in pretty much everything he's done, but I love the rest of the cast in this and it looks ridiculously funny.

Natalie and Zooey? I never even heard of this until now. Guess I'll have to look into this one. Franco though? I just know I'll keep thinking Harry Osborn every time I see him on screen.
