Viral director signs for 'Cool School'

Wayne McClammy, the director behind the viral hits I'm F**king Matt Damon and I'm F**king Ben Affleck, will direct Cool School for 20th Century Fox, reports Variety.

The film focuses on advertising executives in their early thirties who go back to high school to regain their "cool".

McClammy will direct from a script by Derek Guiley, David Schneiderman and Mark Perez. Michael Aguiler will act as producer.

The I'm F**king Matt Damon musical clip featured Damon posing as Sarah Silverman's lover. Silverman aired the clip during a guest appearance on boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel's chatshow.

In retaliation, Kimmel recorded an all-star response which portrayed his "tawdry affair" with Damon's friend Ben Affleck.

Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford, Cameron Diaz, Robin Williams and Macy Gray all cameoed in the latter clip.

Combined, the two sketches have been viewed more than 10 million times online.
