Well it was… sorta… fun while it lasted…

It’s been revealed that the Danny McBride Crocodile Dundee “film” is, in actuality… not really a film but rather a promo intended to shine a light on Australian tourism, at least according to this article by Britt Hayes and found on screencrush.com:

Here’s the truth behind the fake Danny McBride Dundee film

For those unfamiliar with the whole thing, a week or so ago appeared the following “teaser” trailer (after the teaser featured below, you got some trailers for the other “real” Crocodile Dundee films):

Then, a few days ago, appeared a second, IMHO far more amusing trailer which featured Mr. McBride alongside Chris Hemsworth (this teaser trailer, annoying, concludes with the first teaser trailer):

Gotta give Mr. Hemsworth plenty of credit.  To make one word, “really” so funny takes considerable skill! 😉

Frankly, and if the story is indeed to be believed, if this supposed film was a fake, it was a clever bit of misdirection… and perhaps its for the best such a film isn’t made.  I mean, it could work, I suppose, but I’d be skeptical.
