"The Landlord" is a 2007 short comedy film starring Will Ferrell. The film was directed by Adam McKay and written by Ferrell and McKay. In the film, Ferrell's character is harassed by his landlord for overdue rent money. The landlord is a two-year-old girl (played by McKay's daughter, Pearl) who wears a princess dress, swears at her tenant and is finally appeased by an offer of beer.

The film premiered on April 17, 2007 on Ferrell and McKay's video website, Funny or Die. Since its debut, the video has been viewed more than 58 million times, and is a "Chosen One" meaning it was never rated by Funny or Die members.

In June 2007, Pearl McKay and Will Ferrell reunited for "Good Cop, Baby Cop" in which McKay plays a tough police officer who forces Ferrell to sign a confession. This was announced to be Pearl McKay's final performance.
