The two stars will be seen this summer in Sony's Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, a high-octane comedy about the fast and furious world of NASCAR. Inside the magazine, Stuff presents Ferrell and Bibb in character giving readers the first look at Farrell's next box office blockbuster. Speaking as Ricky Bobby, Will reflects on his childhood: "My earliest memory is of a guy in a gorilla mask and no shirt being arrested on our front lawn. It was my dad."

Executive editor Dan Bova says, "Stuff magazine chose to take a bold step and feature Ferrell alongside Leslie Bibb on the cover because Talladega Nights is sure to be the most quoted flick of the summer. It's got the two things that every guy loves in a movie: fast cars, beautiful women and Will Ferrell. Okay, that was three things. We never claimed to be great mathematicians over here."
