Alexander Payne’s work always has at least a touch of the comedic, but apparently 2017's shrinking Matt Damon movie Downsizing didn’t do enough to scratch the Nebraska and Sideways director’s funny itch. According to Variety, Payne is working with Will Ferrell and Adam McKay’s production company Gary Sanchez for The Menu, a “comedic horror-thriller” written by Will Tracy and Seth Reiss. The movie is reportedly set in the “world of high-end culinary culture” and focuses on two people who get a chance to eat at an exclusive restaurant hidden on an island “where the acclaimed chef has prepared a lavish tasting menu, along with some shocking surprises.”
