For those already dreading the answer, here is the “plot” of “Man-Witch”.


Jack Black

“Man-Witch centers on a man who learns he’s a witch and goes off to teach the craft at a Hogwarts-like all-female witch school.”

No doubt that hi-jinks ensue. One would hope that this high-profile defection will shelve plans for the film, but Warner Bros. seems committed to keep going.

“Man-Witch had a tentative January start date before Black disengaged, and is moving forward on schedule, according to Warner Brothers.”

The writer/director of “Man-Witch” is Todd Phillips, who sports a resume of cinematic garbage like “Road Trip” and “Old School”. One can only imagine what “treats” are in store once this film hits theaters.

So let’s hear it for Jack Black’s aesthetic judgment, and let’s hope this film doesn’t inspire any misguided press releases or “synergy” from Wiccan/Witch groups looking for a few seconds in the journalistic afterglow.
