Get excited: Former Saturday Night Live co-stars Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig are set to reunite on the big screen. According to Variety, Wiig has joined the cast of the upcoming film The Skeleton Twins, taking over a role opposite Hader that Anna Faris was originally attached to. The two wil play twins Maggie and Milo who, after coincidentally avoiding death on the same day, choose to "reunite and confront how their lives went so wrong." The film will also star Luke Wilson as Maggie's husband, a "sweet, 'nature frat boy.'"

True Adolescents' Craig Johnson is set to direct the film, which he co-wrote with Black Swan's Mark Heyman. Filming is set to begin later this month in New York.
