Jay Baruchel & Rose Byrne 'Pushing Up Daisies'

Pushing Up Daisies
Jay Baruchel and Rose Byrne are set to star in the indie black comedy Pushing Up Daisies, says the Hollywood Reporter.

The feature, which is being directed by Chaz Thorne, follows a young man (Baruchel) who inherits a funeral parlor only to find that the business is dying -- because nobody in town is. He teams up with a young embalmer (Byrne) to turn the business around, and the two of them leave a trail of suspicious deaths in their wake.

The project, which is based on a script by Throne, is currently shooting in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
