Filming of Gulliver’s Travels is underway.

Billy Connolly, James Gorden (in a fat suit), Jason Segel, Emily Blunt (taking a swing at Chris O’Dowd) and Catherine Tate were busy filming on the Oxfordshire, England set today (June 1).

Funnyman Jack Black also appeared, but was not in costume and did the “funky chicken dance” to amuse the cast and crew.

In the Rob Letterman-directed adventure film, Jack plays Lemuel Gulliver, a free-spirited travel writer who, on an assignment to the Bermuda Triangle, suddenly finds himself a giant among men when he washes ashore on the hidden island of Liliput, home to a population of industrious, yet tiny, people.

20th Century Fox will release Gulliver’s Travels in theaters on June 4, 2010.
