The Producers, which will be released by Universal Pictures, opening nationwide on Christmas Day, will star its original bonanza team of Nathan Lane/> as Max Bialystock and Matthew Broderick/> as Leo Bloom, Max' partner in theatrical crime.

Based on the classic 1968 comedy-with music, The Producers finds Leo and Max in search of the show that most has "flop" written all over on it (they choose Springtime for Hitler, of course). Once the show bombs, they can pocket the money to Rio, but they don't pause to wonder...what if the flop is a hit? The film will feature a new song--"There's Nothing Like a Show on Broadway"--by Mel Brooks; it will be played over the end credits.

The first promotional appearances for the film have been announced (additional appearances are expected), including:
