Rob Schneider will star in and make his directorial debut with the comedy Big Stan for Crystal Sky Pictures and Silver Nitrate Pictures. Variety says he's also producing.

The film, from an original screenplay by Josh Lieb (The Simpsons), concerns a weak and nebbishy con man who panics when he learns he's going to prison for fraud. He hires a mysterious martial arts guru, who transforms him into a kung fu expert who can fight off inmates who want to hurt him -- and love him.

Schneider will appear in Sony Pictures' upcoming The Benchwarmers, set for release on April 7.

How the hell does Rob Schneider convince a Hollywood studio to finance his films?

Does Rob Schneider have more cred as a martial arts practitioner because he is part Filipino or something?

but then again that'll make him more desirable in prison
