The non–Will Ferrell half of Gary Sanchez Productions is about to swerve from Anchorman 2 to The Big Short, a — wait for it — financial drama. McKay wrote the script, and Brad Pitt’s Plan B will produce. The film is based on a 2011 nonfiction book about “the bond and real estate derivative markets where geeks invent impenetrable securities to profit from the misery of lower — and middle — class Americans who can’t pay their debts.” Variety reminds us that McKay’s The Other Guys touched on financial corruption back in 2010, but this is still a huuuge departure for the dude who directed Ferrell putting his balls on John C. Reilly’s drum set.

Jay Z heard Drake’s art-rap dis in Rolling Stone (“It’s like Hov can’t drop bars these days without at least four art references! I would love to collect at some point, but I think the whole rap/art world thing is getting kind of corny”) and responded to it on a remix of Drake’s own “We Made It.” (Alongside Jay Electronica, which, sweet.) Hov also drops rap’s first known Lupita Nyong’o reference. [via]
