Jonah Hill working on '21 Jump Street' movie

Tbdjonahhill051608Since Fraggle Rock was announced as a movie in the works this week, Hollywood has decided to go for broke and make a version of 21 Jump Street. Entertainment Weekly says Jonah Hill, of all people, is in talks to adapt the series for the big screen.

Sony says he'll work on the screenplay and serve as executive producer for movie, but there's no decision on whether he'll be a member of the cast.

And why not? Hill played a teen in Superbad, so why not be a part of the youthful-looking cops from the old Fox show? We don't think he could really pull off the Johnny Depp role, but we're willing to bet Richard Grieco is available.
