Will Ferrell Pulls Out Of Reagan Alzheimer's Comedy

To quote Ron Burgundy: "That escalated quickly!" Will Ferrell is no longer involved in the Ronald Reagan Alzheimer's Comedy which angered the former president's family this week.

Ferrell's rep told Page Six:

"The REAGAN script is one of a number of scripts that had been submitted to Will Ferrell which he had considered. While it is by no means [an] 'Alzheimer's comedy' as has been suggested, Mr. Ferrell is not pursuing this project."

Glad that's over.
