Spy Comedy NO GLORY Produced By Adam McKay and Will Ferrell To Star Kumail Nanjiani

According to Variety, Kumail Nanjiani is set to star in the new comedy NO GLORY from Adam McKay and Will Ferrell. About the film, McKay shares "I can't wait to dig into this incredible true story. With Kumail at the helm this has a chance to be really 'special,' as Kumail likes to say."

Variety describes NO GLORY as " based on a manuscript written by a National Security Operative and author Scott Shephard about the operative's time in service to the country. The unique account is described as "The Rambunctious Patriotism and World-Wide Shenanigans of a First Generation American in the Clandestine Service of a Grateful and Mostly Unwitting Nation.""

Nanjiani is best known for starring as programmer Dinesh Chugtai in the five seasons of HBO's sitcom "Silicon Valley." He also starred in and co-wrote "The Big Sick" with his wife Emily V. Gordon. The autobiographical comedy-drama received an Oscar nomination for best original screenplay.
