Greg Mottola (“Superbad”, “Adventureland”) is directing “Keeping up with the Joneses” for Fox2000, says Deadline.
The comedy, which sounds like an update of the John Belushi/Dan Aykroyd comedy “Neighbors” (1981), tells of a “a quiet, suburban cul de sac is turned upside down when an unfulfilled married couple begins to suspect that there’s something nefarious afoot with their sexy and charismatic new neighbors.”
