Ricky Gervais updated his blog with new photos from ‘Cemetery Junction’ which he wrote alongside his writing partner Stephen Merchant. Gervais and Merchant are also directing and landed Matthew Goode to costar. Gervais and Merchant previously created ‘The Office’ and ‘Extras’, so this shouldn’t be a major undertaking for them. We get this from Empire about the film which was previously titled ‘The Man from the Pru’:

“Well yes, it was once going to be a TV show and maybe still is, but we’re trying to do it the M*A*S*H* way round. We thought that when you do a TV show and then do a film, generally it’s awful. One, it taints the film with a TV brush. It breaks its credibility a little bit. I don’t want to do a film that’s just an extended TV episode. So we want to give the film its best shot and treat it with the reverence a film deserves.”

“There are so many films made that don’t deserve to be shot on film. You know, there’s not filmic or cinematic at all — they’re just two hours of a TV show with people off TV running around being funny. So we were like, “We want to give this a best chance, so let’s do it the M*A*S*H* way round.”We’ll put all our eggs into the film, and then we’ll do a TV spin-off, which we’ll treat differently. “
