It's official: ghost-busting Blues Brother Dan Aykroyd is going back to his roots—because this funnyman has just become the third "Saturday Night Live" alum to join the cast of the political comedy "Dog Fight." (A comedy about politics? Surely we jest.)
'Tis true, good citizens. Aykroyd has teamed up with former 30 Rock employees Will Ferrell and Jason Sudeikis in this story of two rival South Carolina politicians with presidential aspirations who tangle with each other. Something tells us things get dirty.
Zach Galifianakis (not an "SNL" alum) also stars, and the rounded out cast list includes John Lithgow, Dylan McDermott, Brian Cox, Josh Lawson, Gary Grubbs and P.J. Byrne, Movie Hole reports.
Aykroyd has some legit experience channeling a Southerner, as he recently portrayed President Jimmy Carter in Funny or Die’s ‘Presidential Reunion’ Sketch, which was pretty awesome. Oh, and he owns the House of Blues restaurant chain.

It seems that the movie to be in these days is Jay Roach‘s new political-comedy, Dog Fight. With Jason Sudeikis, Will Ferrell, Zach Galifianakis, John Lithgow, Dylan McDermott and Brian Cox already starring, Moviehole tells us that funnyman Dan Aykroyd has joined their ranks.
Chris Henchy and Shawn Harwell script details a comedy about “two rival politicians (Ferrell and Galifianakis) running for a congressional seat in a small North Carolina district election.” We’re not sure who Aykroyd is playing, but I’m sure whatever part it is, it will show off his Southern charm we’ve seen many times before. Political comedy isn’t foreign territory for him, by the way; he recently mimicked President Jimmy Carter in Funny or Die’s Presidential Reunion sketch. Galifianakis will also produce under the Everyman Pictures banner, with Ferrell and Funny or Die’s Adam McKay, through Gary Sanchez Productions.
