[adrotate banner=”1″]Sometimes things just sound so crazy they can’t possibly be true, but they are. Variety is reporting the Jonas Brothers will be starring in a movie called Walter the Farting Dog. As their feature debut. Directed by the Farrelly Brothers.

Sigh.

Fox has locked the Jonas Brothers to make their feature starring debut in “Walter the Farting Dog.” Based on a bestselling series of books by William Kotzwinkle and Glenn Murray, the film is being adapted by Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen into a family film that will revolve around Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas, as well as their younger brother Frankie.

Pic shoots next spring and is a potential directing project for Peter and Bobby Farrelly, who’ll produce with Bradley Thomas through the trio’s Conundrum banner.

…….

The title character in the “Walter” books is a fat dog with severe flatulence. The brothers play musicians whose parents are asked to care for the dog by an aunt just before she passes away.

“By the time they’ve driven the dog home, everybody’s head is out the window of the family station wagon but Frankie, and only because he has a serious sinus problem and doesn’t notice the stench coming from Walter,” said Peter Farrelly.

Ha ha ha, that sounds HILARIOUS! Hilariously awful.

While his brothers play music, Frankie and the gaseous hound get involved in a plot that involves liberating a koi fish and thwarting jewel thieves.

When I think of jewel thieves and farting dogs, I think of koi.

The studio sees a potential franchise in “Walter,”

Franchise???????????

Hanson should de-retire and beat these idiots to death.
