Matt Stone and Trey Parker are working on a musical about Scientology.
The 'South Park' and 'Book of Mormon' creators are planning to lampoon the controversial religion on the stage and its star follower Tom Cruise is horrified at the idea.
A source said: ''It's still being written but Tom is concerned he'll be the butt of the jokes.
''Tom caught wind of their plans and wasn't happy but then realised there isn't much he can do to stop it.''
I will watch this.

You realize it's going to be a Broadway show. Which won't make it any less awesome, I'm just saying you won't be able to go down to your local theater and see this. Unless they convert to film...

there seems to be a trend recently of musicals taking the piss out of religions. Jerry Springer the Opera, Book of Mormon and now this
can't wait for Muhammed! - sure to go down like a 110 floor building on fire

Would Matt and Trey dare touch Islam? I know they've pissed on it plenty of times on South Park, but if they did a Broadway musical, the security around the building would be president worthy...

I know, and there isn't anywhere to watch it within a 3-hour-drive minimum, but I'll go anyway. If ever there was a musical to go out of my way to see, it's one that makes fun of Scientology. Because fuck those guys.

Plot twist: film profits will go to Church of Scientology so they can continue building their mothership and dominate the human race.
