Mighty Boosh announce film, album plans

Rex Features

The Mighty Boosh's Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt have confirmed that they are currently working on an album and film.

The comedy duo told BBC Newsbeat that their long-rumoured record and movie are finally being written, although they remained tight-lipped over details about both projects.

"We're writing a film at the moment and an album, so hopefully next year," Fielding said. Of why he is yet to offer any specifics, he added: "I've got to stop doing that. I've been stung too many times."

Barratt then asserted that the pair might not produce a film too similar to the TV series.

"We try and do, on TV, quite magical epic journeys and we thought if you're doing a film we should really do it in one room, basically just kind of a sitcom for 90 minutes," he stated. "So we might do that. We might do exactly what we didn't do on TV."
