Culver City, CA (10/11/10) – Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are armed and dangerously funny in the year’s #1 action comedy THE OTHER GUYS, available on Unrated Blu-ray Combo Pack, Unrated Single Disc Blu-ray and Unrated DVD & Theatrical Cut DVD this December 14th from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Funnyman Will Ferrell re-teams with director Adam McKay (Talladega Nights, Step Brothers) and partners onscreen with Mark Wahlberg (Date Night, The Departed) for this hilarious tale of misfit detectives who finally get the chance to step out from behind their desks and into the line of fire. Featuring humorous supporting turns from Eva Mendes (Hitch, Training Day), Michael Keaton (Batman, Out of Sight), Daman Wayans Jr. (Dance Flick, “Def Comedy Jam”) and Rob Riggle (The Hangover), THE OTHER GUYS suits up for even more gut-busting fun on Unrated Blu-ray and DVD, featuring an Unrated film version with footage too outrageous for theatres, plus the behind-the-scenes featurettes “Crash and Burn!” and “Bed Bath and Way Beyond.”

Synopsis
NYPD Detectives Christopher Danson (Johnson) and P.K. (Jackson) are the baddest and most beloved cops in New York City. They don’t get tattoos – other men get tattoos of them. Two desks over and one back, sit Detectives Allen Gamble (Ferrell) and Terry Hoitz (Wahlberg). You’ve seen them in the background of photos of Danson and Highsmith, out of focus and eyes closed. They’re not heroes – they’re “the Other Guys.” But every cop has his or her day and soon Gamble and Hoitz stumble into a seemingly innocuous case no other detective wants to touch that could turn into New York City’s biggest crime. It’s the opportunity of their lives, but do these guys have the right stuff?
