Movie Exclusive: John Steigerwald to Star in "Anchorman 2: Ultimate Sports Guy"

In a Triple Threat Media exclusive, we have obtained the trailer for the upcoming movie "Anchorman 2: Ultimate Sports Guy." The new movie, set in Pittsburgh in 1981, stars Pittsburgh sports media stalwart John Steigerwald as the title character.

Also starring Will Farrell and Paul Rudd, the movie is a spin off of the first Anchorman. Will Farrell, as Ron Burgundy gets fired from his network job and ends up taking the only job he can get, as a station manager for WTAE in Pittsburgh. Languishing in third place in the local ratings, Ron tries to use his TV savvy to boost the ratings. But when all else fails he finds a young beat reporter named John Steigerwald and realizes that he holds the key to zapping the competition!

The exclusive trailer shows John Steigerwald undertaking a variety of wacky sports roles in Ron's advertisement for the new "Ultimate Sports Guy" on WTAE.



The movie is slated to arrive in theaters in May 2011.
