Disney, along with producer Scott Rudin, are developing a comedy about male synchronized swimming called Synchronicity.
The project will be in the vein of previous two-male-leads comedies like Blades of Glory, which starred Will Ferrell and Jon Heder as competitive ice skating parters, and will also be similar to the Ben Stiller comedy, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.
Hmm… wonder where they got the idea to make a comedy about male synchronized swimming?
Could it be from the 1980′s Saturday Night Live skit with Martin Short and Harry Shearer as the swimming pairs and Christopher Guest as their choreographer?
Check out the video of that skit below and see for yourself.
