The Three Stooges Photos Featuring Jane Lynch and Kate Upton


Two new photos have arrived from The Three Stooges, which hits theaters April 13. The photos, which give us our first look at Jane Lynch and Kate Upton, were included in a press release announcing both actresses will serve as Grand Marshalls of the famed NASCAR race the Daytona 500, which airs live Sunday, February 26 at 1 PM ET on Fox. The Stooges themselves, Sean Hayes, Will Sasso, and Chris Diamantopoulos will also be on hand to wave the green flag, which gets the race started. Take a look at these photos below to access our gallery, and read on below the photos for the full press release.

As Grand Marshals, co-stars from the new Three Stooges movie Jane Lynch and Kate Upton will deliver the four most famous words in motorsports - "Drivers, start your engines." Sean Hayes, Chris Diamantopoulos, and Will Sasso - starring as Larry, Moe & Curly - in the all new The Three Stooges from Twentieth Century Fox, will start the action by delivering the green flag at the Daytona 500, NASCAR's most prestigious race, on Sunday, February 26th (FOX, 1 p.m. ET).

"We look forward to Jane and Kate's participation in the pre-race ceremonies, adding to the star power of NASCAR's biggest and richest race of the year," Daytona International Speedway President Joie Chitwood III said. "Also, the thousands of race fans in attendance and the millions more watching on FOX Sports are eagerly waiting to experience 'Stoogemania,' when The Three Stooges deliver the green flag".

In The Three Stooges, which hits theaters everywhere April 13, 2012, newborns Larry, Moe and Curly are left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns. The boys grow up finger-poking, nyuk-nyuk-nyuking and woo-woo-wooing their way to uncharted levels of knuckleheaded misadventure. Out to save their childhood home, only The Three Stooges could become embroiled in an oddball murder plot...while stumbling into starring in a phenomenally successful TV reality show.

Earl M. Benjamin, President and CEO of C3 Entertainment, Inc. (The Three Stooges brand owner) and Executive Producer of the new movie, said "The Three Stooges as a part of the Daytona 500 gives both comedy and racing fans a truly unique blend of two of America's most enduring cultural icons - The greatest comedy team of all time and the aptly named The Great American Race. What could be better?"

Jane Lynch is best known for her role as the sarcastic villain on Fox's hit show Glee, for which she has earned an Emmy and Golden Globe. Kate Upton, who was raised in Melbourne, Fla., is known for her appearance in the 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, where she was named Rookie of the Year.

Sean Hayes (Larry) garnered acclaim as the sarcastic and hilarious Jack McFarland on NBC's long-running sitcom, Will & Grace. Will Sasso (Curly) starred for five seasons (1997-2002) on FOX-TV's hit sketch comedy series MadTV, Chris Diamantopoulos (Moe) recently portrayed Frank Sinatra in the Emmy-nominated mini-series The Kennedys.
