About Warner Bros. Pictures' The Dukes of Hazzard:
Set in present day, The Dukes of Hazzard follows the adventures of
"good old boy" cousins Bo (Seann William Scott) and Luke (Johnny
Knoxville) Duke, who with the help of their eye-catching cousin, Daisy
(Jessica Simpson) and moonshine-running Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson), try
and save the family farm from being destroyed by Hazzard County's corrupt
commissioner, Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds). Their efforts constantly find the
"Duke Boys" eluding authorities in "The General Lee,"
their famed 1969 orange Dodge Charger that keeps them one step ahead of
the dimwitted antics of the small southern town's Sheriff, Roscoe P.
Coltrane (M. C. Gainey). The Dukes of Hazzard is rated PG-13 for sexual
content, crude and drug-related humor, language and comic action. SOURCE
