Washington DC [US], August 9 : 'Saturday Night Live' alum Kristen Wiig boards the cast of Jonah Hill's starrer comedy film 'Cut Off', reported Variety.
According to the outlet, the film is based on wealthy siblings whose parents turn off the money faucet and force their adult kids to support themselves. The project will be directed by Jonah Hill and co-written by Ezra Woods.
Warner Bros studio has carved out a July 17, 2026, release date for the movie.

Meanwhile, Wiig is preparing to release the second season of her Apple TV+ comedy 'Palm Royale,' on which she serves as executive producer, reported Variety.
The show earned her a 12th career Emmy nomination, on top of recent recognition for co-writing the original song 'Harper and Will Go West" from the Sundance documentary 'Will & Harper.'

As for Jonah Hill, the actor will deliver another feature he directed and produced for Apple Studios: 'Outcome' starring Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer.
