Most Recent Film: 22 Jump Street (2014) Next Film: Han Solo Star Wars Story (2018) Best Film: The Lego Movie (2014) Who are these two uninterestingly name chaps, you're wondering? Why, this is the hilarious pair responsible for great movies such as Cloudy With A Chance Of Meat Balls, 21 Jump Street, its sequel 22 Jump Street and The Lego Movie - and they're about to become two of Hollywood's biggest players, given that they've been commissioned to write and direct - drum roll, please - the Han Solo spin-off film over at Walt Disney. Oh, and they're penning the DC Cinematic Universe Flash movie over at Warner Bros., too. Basically, Lord and Miller - who got their start on MTV's Clone High - are the wunderkind duo of a new era of clever, funny pictures; as a result, everyone wants to work with them. What could have been downright awful in 21 Jump Street (and even more awful in 22 Jump Street) proved endlessly hilarious due to the relentless meta-angle that the pair decided to take. The Lego Movie, on the other hand, could have been an advertisement pretending to be a kids' film, but it emerged as a beautiful meditation on the power of the imagination. These two have gone far, but they're going even further... space is the limit, boys!
