Back in April, Jonah Hill told Collider that the much-touted, very expensive screenplay “The Adventurer’s Handbook” was going to be “the next movie I’m shooting.” To refresh your memory, the project penned by Hill, Matt Spicer and Max Winkler, the film will follow four childhood friends who embark on a global adventure inspired by the stories of explorers detailed in Mick Conefrey’s book “The Adventurer’s Handbook: Life Lessons From History’s Great Explorers.”

Yet, they all play pretty flawed characters. Jason Segel has the role of talented musician, but alcoholic who never got his act together instead becoming a backup piano player. Hill will play an engineer isolated from his family and Jason Schwartzman plays a spoiled and cowardly three-time Grammy winner. So who’s that fourth friend? They hadn’t cast that actor yet.

But, as things happen in Hollywood, plans change and schedules shift and what seemed as Hill’s surefire next starring gig has now taken a firm backseat to a handful of other projects on the actor’s very busy slate. Catching up again with Collider, Hill revealed that, “Basically, we got greenlit and then we had scheduling conflicts because of Jason Segel and Jason Schwartzman’s television shows ["How I Met Your Mother" & "Bored To Death"]. We basically had to fit it into this window and their shows went over [schedule] or whatever and we just couldn’t do it, and then luckily I got offered ‘Moneyball’ shortly after that.”

Is real-life mom Alyson Hannigan down with the notion of Marshall and Lily having little ones on “How I Met Your Mother”?

“I think it’s a great idea,” she tells Korbi TV in the clip below. “I’m very excited. Absolutely. You know, it’s going to limit their time in the bar if it happens. But that’s okay, we spend too much time there anyway.”

The series does, however, have built-in baby-sitters.

“Not Barney though,” Hannigan says. “I don’t think that’s safe.”

It’s true, Barney might not be the best choice for surrogate caretaker. Jason Segel, however, may actually have a hard time handling a real-life baby onscreen once Marshall and Lily give birth.

Hannigan, whose 1-year-old daughter was on set during the filming of the finale, says she’d be willing to let Jason practice with her own kid. Apparently he serenaded the infant earlier this year.

“It was just delightful and she really enjoyed that, so I’d trust him,” Alyson shares. “Not alone. But with me there, yeah.”

Wise woman.
