Last night Will Ferrell -- excuse me, boys and girls, San Diego newsman, jazz flautist, and scotch enthusiast Ron Burgundy -- dropped by Conan O'Brien's set to jam, give Conan unsolicited grooming tips, and OH YES -- make an announcement: "As of 0900 Mountain Time, Paramount Pictures and myself, Ronald Joseph Aaron Burgundy, have come to terms on a sequel to Anchorman." Caress some mahogany, smoke a little tea, and rejoice the good word with a clip of the historic announcement!
According to Deadline, the pieces finally fell into place on the long-hoped for Anchorman 2, which will be directed by Adam McKay and written by McKay and Ferrell. Also according to Deadline, Nikki Finke used to own a set of Anchorman bobbleheads. Great Odin's raven, let's toast to the unifying power of Ron Burgundy!
