The men who hilariously recreated Kanye West's "Bound 2" music video and spoofed his Vogue cover with Kim Kardashian are now mocking North Korea's Kim Jong-un in the upcoming action-comedy flick The Interview.

Starring James Franco and Seth Rogen, the film is seemingly a continuation of the two actors' off-screen bromance, as evidenced in the movie's first trailer, above.

Franco plays celebrity tabloid reporter Dave Skylar and Rogen is his producer, Aaron Rapoport, for their TV show Skylark Tonight. After discovering Kim Jong-un is a fan of the show, Skylark and Rapoport travel to Pyongyang, North Korea, to interview him. But before they do, the CIA intervenes with quite the assignment: assassinate Kim Jong-un.
