So here we are; with a brand new look, just in time for the premieres of Girl Most Likely and Despicable Me 2! For this layout I used one of the beautiful photos from the shoot Kristen did during her hosting-duties for Saturday Night Live. The photo gallery has been designed to fit the change, with the video archive being modified as we speak. I will continue to update the written site-content in the coming week, so be sure to check back for the latest updates. I hope y’all will enjoy the change of layouts, please drop a comment before you leave. Thanks!

Yesterday, IFC released an official press release regarding the show, complete with new actors and the official synopsis. The miniseries started production on Sunday and is set to air early 2014. Check out some tidbits from the press release below, and check it out in its entirety at Deadline Hollywood.

Jessica Alba, Val Kilmer, Tobey Maguire, Haley Joel Osment, Michael Sheen, Tim Robbins and Kristen Wiig are confirmed to join Will Ferrell in IFC’s new original comedy, The Spoils of Babylon. A parody of epic television mini-series, The Spoils of Babylon is produced by Funny or Die and executive produced by Ferrell, Adam McKay, Matt Piedmont, Andrew Steele and Nate Young. Steele and Piedmont created and wrote the series, and Piedmont will direct. Production began June 2 in Los Angeles. Six, half-hour episodes will premiere on IFC in early 2014.

The Spoils of Babylon, a century-spanning saga, chronicles the sexy and dramatic lives of the Morehouse family, led by Jonas Morehouse (Robbins), his daughter Cynthia (Wiig) and her adopted brother Devon (Maguire) who made their fortune in the oil business. The series takes viewers from the oil fields of Texas to boardrooms in New York City, through war torn battlefields and velvet-sheeted bedrooms.

Cynthia and Devon’s unbridled and taboo passion for one another cannot be prevented. Add in Cynthia’s evil son Winston (Osment), her put upon husband Chet Halner (Sheen), and Devon’s new love interest Dixie Mellonworth (Alba), and the booze, the pills, more passion, more pills and the heartache, and you have a mercurial potboiler. Then add in illegal arms deals, international espionage, the Shah of Iran (Ferrell), and two US Army Generals (Kilmer, Steve Tom) and it begins to overflow with boiling liquid in a pot on a hot stove that is operational.
