Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna Join Will Ferrell en la CASA DE MI PADRE

The odds that Casa de mi padre, a Spanish-language film set to star Will Ferrell, is all a big hoax went down 12% tonight.  Mexico natives Gael Garcia Bernal (Blindness) and Diego Luna (Milk) have joined the cast along with Genesis Rodriguez (Entourage), Pedro Armendariz Jr. (The Legend of Zorro), Hector Jimenez (Nacho Libre), and Adrian Martinez (Kick-Ass), effectively legitimizing the project.

The plot of the film — said to be in the style of an “overly dramatic telenovela” — is still under wraps.  Though one potentially revealing detail has surfaced in the description of Luna’s character.  Details after the jump.

Opening on October 30th is director Jared Hess’ (“Napoleon Dynamite”) new movie “Gentlemen Broncos”.

Anyway, Fox Searchlight has released two clips from the movie and you can watch them after the jump. I’ve also posted the synopsis if you’re not familiar with the film.
