Ben Stiller takes on the King

DreamWorks has bought the rights to the graphic novel 'The Return of King Doug' for Ben Stiller to produce and possibly star in.
'King Doug' tells the story of a man who has to return to the fantasy world he abandoned 30 years earlier.
The as-yet-to-be-published novel was written by Greg Orb and Jason Oremland, who are lined up to pen the screenplay.
According to Variety, Stiller will produce the film through his DreamWorks-based Red Hour Films.
The actor has finished work on his upcoming comedy 'Tropic Thunder', which he also directed and produced via Red Hour and is preparing to shoot 'Night at the Museum II: Escape from the Smithsonian.'
