New Chris Kattan Project Set In Mumbai


For those who enjoyed A Night at the Roxbury or even Corky Romano, Kattan appeared on Jimmy Fallon last night and gave a first look at his upcoming IFC mini-series Bollywood Hero. The plot centers on an out of work American actor who decides to try his luck in Bollywood. There's the usual Kattan mugging and the obligatory makeout with an animal scene. The show will debut in the summer on the IFC channel. I am a fan of Kattan and IFC makes solid original stuff like Greg the Bunny and The Henry Rollins Show, so I'm optimistic. With Slumdog's success I think it's safe to say we are gonna see a lot of projects set in India. It's great to see stories not filmed in Burbank or Vancouver and I hope we get some new perspectives on Indian life.
