Red Band 'Semi-Pro' Trailer With Andre Benjamin Online

While others are still trying to reinvent themselves in this business, Andre Benjamin is one of the few singers who has made a good transition in the acting world. With 'Be Cool', 'Four Brothers', 'Idlewild' and most recently 'Revolver' to his credit, Benjamin has made his bones to be look upon as actor. The more work he does, his game just elevates. In his next film, he will need his game when he plays along Will Ferrell in the comedy basketball film 'Semi Pro'.

Also featured in the film are Woody Harrelson, Maura Tierney, Will Arnett, Andy Richter, Rob Corddry, DeRay Davis, Josh Braaten, Jay Phillips, and Jackie Earle Haley.

New Line Cinema will release 'Semi-Pro' in theaters on February 29, 2008.

Will Ferrell stars in Semi-Pro, an outrageous comedy set in 1976 against the backdrop of the maverick ABA - a fast-paced, wild and crazy basketball league that rivaled the NBA and made a name for itself with innovations like the three-point shot and slam dunk contest. Ferrell plays Jackie Moon, a one-hit wonder who used the profits from the success of his chart-topping song "Love Me Sexy" to achieve his dream of owning a basketball team. But Moon's franchise, the Flint Michigan Tropics, is the worst team in the league and in danger of folding when the ABA announces its plans to merge with the NBA. If they want to survive, Jackie and the Tropics must now do the seemingly impossible - win.
