Black Face sells me on anything.
On the right we have a clearly recognizable Ben Stiller. On the left we have a somewhat less recognizable Jack Black. And in the middle, Robert Downey Jr. in blackface.
Hoo boy.
Teaser site here. Apparently this is a comedy about the filming of a Vietnam war epic, during which the cast accidentally wanders into a real war zone. Stiller directs as well as stars. Oh, and Downey's character is a white actor playing a part originally written for a black man, and he's so method he gets plastic surgery and dyes his skin rather than have the character adjusted.

You sir, are a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.
I wouldn't exactly call that black face.
He does make for a pretty convincing black dude though.

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
Robert Downey Jr seemingly going for the Actor of the Year award between this and Iron Man.
