The Champions

This just in from the I was Not Expecting This Remake department: Ben Stiller to direct and co-star with Cate Blanchett in The Champions, based on the 1968 superhuman spy series about UN agents receiving superpowers after a plane crash in the Himalayas leads to them being saved by the wise people of secret Not Shangri-La. Expect the title to confuse fans of the superhero RPG spinoff comics and the L. A. based Marvel team. Also a fifty-fifty chance Stiller will play the American hero... Craig.
