Mike Judge ‘Extract’-s laughs
No word yet if he’ll make it in Austin, but Mike Judge is writing and directing the comedy “Extract,” with Jason Bateman in the lead.
The hometown humorist filmed his two prior features, the cult smash “Office Space” and the unjustly neglected “Idiocracy,” in Austin.
Bateman will play an extract plant owner beset by workplace and personal troubles, including a cheating wife. “Extract” will be the first feature from Ternion Productions, the new company Judge formed with John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, according to Variety.
Judge, Altschuler and Krinsky write and produce the animated Fox show “King of the Hill” and are working on “The Goode Family,” an animated sitcom for ABC that will premiere next year.
