In the last couple of years, Jonah Hill has steadily worked his way up from Michael Cera sidekick to leading man. And now he’s taken on his first directing gig, helming the new film The Kitchen Sink, about an alliance between a high school vampire, a zombie, and a human trying to save their town from invading aliens. Sink was on the top of the 2010 Black List, an annual list of the most desirable unproduced scripts written that year, as determined by hundreds of film executives. Hill’s been a busy bee: He co-wrote the big-screen adaptation of 21 Jump Street, in which he’ll also star. [Deadline]
