Bob and David Climb Machu Picchu (2026)

Bob and David Climb Machu Picchu is an upcoming documentary film scheduled for release on July 3, 2026. The project features legendary comedy duo Bob Odenkirk and David Cross in their own roles as they embark on the physical and comedic challenge of ascending one of the world's most famous historical landmarks. The film captures their journey through a lens that blends travelogue elements with the signature improvisational humor and friendship dynamics that have defined their careers in shows like Mr. Show and Better Call Saul.

The production highlights the real-life bond between the two actors, who have collaborated extensively over the decades. By placing themselves in the rugged environment of the Peruvian Andes, the documentary aims to explore themes of endurance, nostalgia, and camaraderie. With Bob Odenkirk having recently expanded his resume into producing and acting across various media, and David Cross continuing his stand-up and acting endeavors, this film serves as a unique crossover event for fans of both performers.

Key production details include the involvement of Naomi Odenkirk as an executive producer for related projects in the pair's collaborative history, underscoring the professional support behind their ventures. The documentary format allows for unscripted moments during their trek, offering audiences an intimate look at their interaction outside of traditional narrative structures. As of the latest announcements, the film is positioned as a standalone special event rather than part of a larger franchise, focusing entirely on the specific mission of climbing Machu Picchu.
