Paramount Primal is getting in business with Tyler Falbo for the R-rated comedy Boys for Life.
The logline is being kept under wraps, but it is an R-rated comedy that Falbo will write with Max Barrett. He will direct and produce as well.
The film is in production, with Paramount slating it for April 9, 2027. Galen Cor will also produce the film along with Falbo, who rose to online fame with his Almost Friday sketch videos.
Falbo has already parlayed his sketch work into Hollywood deals, and also has the FX series Last Night Was a Movie in the works, with the creator set to direct, with Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda showrunning.
This is the latest move for Paramount Primal, the label J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules formed last year. On Monday, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that the duo had secured the rights for A Nightmare on Elm Street for Primal.
In addition to dating Boys for Life, Paramount also made a shift in its calendar for Teyana Taylor’s Get Lite, which moves from April 9, 2027 to Aug. 20, 2027. Taylor directs and Storm Reid stars in the film, that per the logline, is about a talented, sheltered dance student who finds love in the subways of New York City.
Falbo is repped by Range Media Partners, UTA and Ziffren Brittenham. Barrett is repped by Mosaic, Fox Rothschild and WME.
