Adam McKay opens up about the split from Will Ferrell that resulted in the end of their production studio and friendship.
After working together for over two decades and delivering such comedy classics as Anchorman, Talladega Nights, and Step Brothers, creative partners and seemingly still friends Will Ferrell and Adam McKay announced in 2019 they were pulling the plug on their joint company Gary Sanchez Productions. At the time, Ferrell and McKay released a statement saying, “The two of us will always work together creatively and always be friends. And we recognize we are lucky as hell to end this venture as such.” Unfortunately, they would never work together again nor remain friends, it appears. In a lengthy new profile for Vanity Fair to promote his new star-studded disaster film, Don’t Look Up, McKay has opened up about the split from Ferrell, which he blames himself for causing.
