Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's recently launched Gary Sanchez Productions is expanding into television with "P.E.," a single-camera comedy for HBO, says The Hollywood Reporter.
Jody Hill, Ben Best and Danny McBride will write "P.E.," which centers on a guy who, after flaming out as a major league baseball pitcher, returns to his small Southern hometown to teach physical education at the middle school he once attended and has to make amends with all the people he turned his back on.
Hill, Best and McBride wrote and starred in the indie kung fu comedy The Foot Fist Way, which Hill directed.
