Saturday Night Live alum Will Ferrell and Boogie Nights star Mark Wahlberg are teaming up as cops in the upcoming comedy The B Team.

Directing is Adam McKay, who also teamed with Ferrell in 2006’s Talladega Nights (cost $72 million, grossed $148 million) and 2008’s Step Brothers (cost $65 million, grossed $100 million).

According to Variety, the script is unfinished but with a McKay-Ferrell pairing, Sony Pictures Entertainment went ahead and acquired the rights to the film anyway.

Mark Wahlberg and his longtime girlfriend Rhea Durham, 29, only have two kids — Ella, 4, and Michael, 2 — and are expecting a third (a boy in September) but they want many, many more.

“When the kids are good, we want eight or nine,” Mark, 37, told People. “When they’re bad, we [want] to stop at three.”

He adds, “[Having a full house] is awesome. Hectic at times. But a lot of fun… My fear is failing as a father, as a friend, as a son. I have a lot of responsibility and a lot of people counting on me. And I know God has put me in this position to put back and try to create some opportunities for some others, show kids there is another way.”
