FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF Stars Matthew Broderick and Alan Ruck Reuniting for Comedy Feature THE BEST IS YET TO COME — GeekTyrant
Ferris Bueller's Day Off stars Matthew Broderick and Alan Ruck are negotiating to reunite in The Best Is Yet To Come , a comedy that Allan Loeb scripted and Jon Turteltaub will direct. The film is backed by MRC and Lionsgate, and it is based on the French film of the same title, directed by Alexandre de La Patelliere and Matthieu Delaporte.
In the film, the pair will play best friends who, through a colossal misunderstanding that creates a ticking clock, hop in a car to find the estranged son of one of them and also try to do all the things that life has prevented them from doing.
This even has a Ferris Bueller-feel to it, with a little road trip and checking some fun things off a friend's bucket list, of sorts. Broderick ( The Lion King , The Producers ) and Ruck ( Speed , Succession ) have stayed friends since first starring in the John Hughes 1986 touchstone comedy.
Deals are being finalized and the filmmakers are eyeing a summer production start. Stay tuned for updates as the project gets moving.

Melania Trump and Usha Vance Opt for All-Black To See Les Mis
Against the backdrop of ICE raids and continuing protests in Los Angeles, the Trumps and the Vances dressed up for the opening night of Les Misérables at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.—the musical about redemption, justice, and revolution in 19th century France. For many, the irony was not lost, and the enduring feelings of frustration and unrest with the Trump administration were palpable at the Kennedy Center. President Trump and Melania Trump, as well as Vice President JD Vance and wife Usha Vance, received a mixed reception on the red carpet—many booed, while others chanted 'USA.' Cast members of the original production are also reported to have boycotted the evening. ('I couldn't care less,' Trump told the present press. 'Honestly, I couldn't. All I do is run the country well'). Melania opted for a black sleeveless Bottega Veneta gown with a high boatneck and gold neck fastening, with silver stilettos. Second Lady Usha Vance wore a dark navy, strapless Shoshanna dress with silver piping across the bodice and skirt with black pumps. Cheryl Hines and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. were also in attendance: Hines wore a black strapless gown with a feathered hemline, with black open-toed sandals and a black and silver clutch bag. Trump, Vance, and Kennedy Jr. wore classic tuxedos; Vance and Kennedy Jr's with accents of navy blue. While the leading families opted for dark, subdued, monochromatic looks—pared back from their usual outings—it was in contrast to some of the stoic, poised protesters in the audience. A group of drag queens, wearing colorful outfits of pastel pinks and yellows, took to their seats in the auditorium to rounds of applause: Protesting Trump's impact on the arts and the LGBTQ+ community.
