FAT CHANCE

Bill Cosby is bringing Fat Albert to the big screen. According to The Associated Press, the funnyman is turning his popular Saturday morning cartoon — which ran from 1972 to 1984 — into a live-action film. Cosby is penning the screenplay with writing partner Charles Kipps, but it's unclear whether the sitcom star will also play a role in the movie.
