The
General Lee is back and so are the Duke boys in this big-screen adaptation of the hit TV series, brought to you by
Jay Chandrasekhar of the
Broken Lizard comedy troupe. Set in the "present day," the story follows
Bo (
Seann William Scott) and
Luke (
Johnny Knoxville) as they cruise around Hazzard County and wreck havoc in their classic 1969 Dodge Charger. Together with their scantily clad cousin
Daisy (
Jessica Simpson) and moonshining
Uncle Jesse (
Willie Nelson), the two good old boys battle the corrupt county commissioner
Boss Hog (
Burt Reynolds) when he and local
Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane (
M.C. Gainey) threaten to take away the family farm.
John O'Brien has the lone writer's credit on the film, though additional uncredited rewrites were handled by the
Broken Lizard gang.
