That's one way to deal with it.

quote:

Bill Hader will bring some personal experience to his feature film debut.

The Saturday Night Live alum will write, direct, and star in They Know, a horror film that follows a divorced dad, played by Hader, who becomes suspicious that his ex-wife is “secretly dating a mysterious man who is having a strange influence on their children,” according to Deadline.

Hader, 47, shares three daughters with his ex-wife, writer-director Maggie Carey: Hannah, 15, Harper, 13, and Hayley, 10. He and Carey were married from 2006 to 2018 before they split amicably, with Hader citing irreconcilable differences in his 2017 divorce filing.

The fictional former couple Hader will invent for the original story, in collaboration with his Barry collaborator Duffy Boudreau, may not fare as well, the project’s description teases.

The horror movie will be Hader’s first feature-length project and follows his four-season, Emmy-winning HBO dark comedy series Barry, for which he won three DGA awards for directing.

Surprised he didn’t name his kids Keith Morrison I, Keith Morrison II and Keith Morrison III, girls or not.

He could have gone the Tracy Jordon, George Foreman route from 30 Rock.

Kind of like Affleck did with Gone Girl.

He directed a good bit of Barry, especially in the later seasons. I’ve been looking forward to his next project since that ended. Barry was based on his time on SNL so this wouldn’t be his first time using his trauma for entertainment.

Also, screw The Bear for robbing Barry of the comedy awards.

amicable divorces exist in movies, not real life.
