Actually, that last one is not a joke at all. The production entities Radioactive and Entertainment Squad announced today that Messrs. Norris and Ice are both playing themselves in an action-comedy titled Zombie Plane, which was shot in Australia earlier this year.
In the movie, a secret government agency has recruited celebrities to be undercover agents and the celebs must save humanity from an imminent attack from the undead. The film is directed by Lav Bodnaruk and Michael Mier and also stars Australian actress Sophie Monk. In a statement, producer Jessica Butland promises that audiences "can expect a wild ride, Vanilla Ice is in his element as [a] secret agent and Chuck Norris, having trained him, is excellent."
Of course, Chuck Norris shouldn't be called "excellent." Excellent should be called "Chuck Norris"!
