Adam Rifkin will write, direct and star in comedy
Homo Erectus, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The comedy set in prehistoric times and is described as being in the vein of Woody Allen's "Bananas" and "Sleeper," "Homo Erectus" centers on Ishbo, a philosophical caveman who yearns for more out of life than sticks, stones and raw meat. The rest of his tribe write off his forward-thinking ideas as the ravings of an idiot, including the cavegirl he loves from afar.
