Will Ferrell is an actor who is among the most popular comedy stars in the film industry. Not long ago, Netflix confirmed that Will would star in a comedy series called Golf. Based on Netflix's official statement on Monday May 20, 2024, Will Ferrell will play the fictional golf legend in this series.
Golf was made by Will with Ramy Youssef and Josh Rabinowitz, with Rian Johnson as executive producer. It was also stated that this series will be available in 10 episodes. After starting his career on Saturday Night Live, Ferrell began actively pursuing acting in the films Anchorman, Old School, Elf, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Step Brothers, and dozens of other titles.
The early 2000s were indeed a heyday for comedy genre films released in cinemas, but currently this genre no longer has the same appeal for audiences. For example, the film Strays (2023) which tells the story of a talking dog and features Will Ferrell as his voice actor.
With a production cost of $46 million, the film only managed to gross $36 million at the box office. This shows that pure comedy is currently more successful and in demand on streaming platforms than on the big screen. As a leader in the streaming platform industry, Netflix can be said to be reliable enough to bring the new series starring Will to a wide audience.
Will Ferrell, known as one of the best comedic actors in Hollywood, is the ideal choice to join this Netflix original comedy series. With his wealth of experience in entertaining audiences, Will's presence on Golf certainly promises to be the perfect combination of spine-tingling comedic talent and a popular streaming platform.
Even though not much is known about what the protagonist of Golf looks like, we can see traces of Will's career, who has successfully played legendary figures in various fields before. He became a NASCAR legend in Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, a patinage legend in Blades of Glory , and a major figure in the world of the evening news in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.
