This movie is written by Will Forte, John Solomon, and Jorma Taccone who is also the director. It is set to be released on May 21st, 2010.
The character MacGruber was oroginally created in the NBC late night live comedy show Saturday Night Live (SNL). MacGruber was a parody of the famous TV series of the 80's and 90's, MacGyver, starring Richard Dean Anderson.
Ever since his fiancee died 10 years earlier, MacGruber (Will Forte) dedicated his whole life to fighting crime, but in an unorthodox way: he fought crime with his bare hands.
MacGruber was the only man in the world who had earned the rank of green beret, navy seal, and US ranger, and received 16 purple hearts, 3 congressional medals of honor, and 7 presidential medals of bravery.
One day, a nuclear warhead got stolen from the USA by his worst enemy, Dieter Von Cunth (Val Kilmer), whose main goal was to destroy Washington D.C. Therefore, the United States were in desperate need for a hero.
Since MacGruber was unique in his rank when it came to national heroes, he figured he was the only one suitable for the job. He teamed up with lieutenant Dixon Piper (Ryan Phillippe) and Vicki St. Elmo (Kristen Wiig), two qualified experts who would help him bring back the warheads and bring Dieter to justice.
