JACK BLACK - BLACK EAGER TO PLAY MEXICAN PRIEST

JACK BLACK is eager to begin filming his role as a Mexican priest who lives a double life as a wrestler, because the project will team him up with longtime collaborator MIKE WHITE again.

The SCHOOL OF ROCK actor, who is to co-produce the as-yet-untitled movie with White, believes collaborating with his pal, as well as NAPOLEON DYNAMITE director JARED HESS, will ensure a wild time on the South American set.

Black says, "I can't think of two people I'd rather party with than MIKE WHITE and JARED HESS.

"I can't wait to get down to Mexico."
