If you’ve seen “Be Kind, Rewind”, then you might agree with me that Jack Black would be perfect for the new Ghostbusters movie.

Apparently he spent some time with Harold Ramis (the original Egon) who is on the short list to direct the third movie. He tried to make his case for appearing in the upcoming flick.

Black says, “Could I see myself in it? Yeah, I can bust some ghosts! I ain’t afraid of no ghosts! Buster.”

At least he’d bring the funny. Don’t you think?

The Office’s post-Super Bowl episode just scored the equivalent of a touchdown with a two-point conversion: Jack Black has signed on to guest star in the hour-long episode, sources confirm to me exclusively.

The hitcom’s producers are keeping the specifics of Black’s stint under lock and key, so the only detail I’ve been able to uncover is that the funny man won’t be playing himself.

As previously reported by TV Week, the Feb. 1 episode, which will air immediately following NBC’s Super Bowl telecast, will revolve around the staff of Dunder Mifflin roasting Michael (Steve Carell).

Jack Black took celebrities taking donation calls at Friday night’s Stand Up 2 Cancer telethon in America to task – by demanding they phone each other with pledges.

The Tropic Thunder star admitted he has watched celebrity telethons as a cynic in the past – and he wanted to make sure this TV special would be a big winner.

He said, “You know that if one of those lucky so-and-so’s donated two percent of what they made, we could all go back to (TV show) Project Runway.”

He then tackled actor Josh Brolin, who was in the middle of a pledge call and ordered him to put the phone down, yelling, “Hang up the freaking phone!” Black then told Brolin to call comedienne Ellen DeGeneres, who was seated a few desks away from the movie star on the Kodak Theater stage, adding, “Make a pledge. What did you make on the Coen Brothers (film – No Country For Old Men)?”

Black then turned to the cameras and assured the viewers watching the show, “I’m gonna make these gravy trainers pony up.”
