Adult Swim Orders Jason Lee/Jack Black Skateboarding Pilot

0 52

Adult Swim has put in an order for a pilot by Jason Lee (My Name is Earl) and Jack Black, Deadline reports.

Written by Lee and Luke Watson, the pilot, entitled Shredd: The Jon Johnsonsen Story, takes cues from Lee’s real-life skateboarding background. Jon Johnsonsen is a teenage pro skateboarder with tons of fame, who lands himself in a coma for 25 years after attempting and failing a risky skate trick. He wakes up, now 42, but with the mind of a teenager, and must come to terms with how his life has changed.

Jack Black, Watson, and Lee will executive produce the pilot.

No date has been announced, and knowing Adult Swim, there’s a slight chance we may never even see this on television (most of the Burger King BUNS pilots have never aired), but keep an eye out for this one.
