Well, to be accurate, the article got funny after reading through it because it's an exclusive article on Variety talking about Danny Trejo's role in a then, upcoming movie, called Reaper.
But what's funny to me was that the article just seems to tell, or recant cast and production details from IMDb. (To be honest, maybe when the article went live, it might have had juicy new insider news on who was starring in and producing Reaper. And what their next projects will be.)
But usually, I associate the term "exclusive" to being some other kind of production news or interviews that isn't from or will land on IMDb or isn't from a group red carpet presser or other silly things.

All joking aside, Danny Trejo looks like one of the busiest actors in all of Hollywood. He's got one of the most well-known faces that just keeps showing up, and to be honest, shows up in fun roles. (Though on occasion, he goes for serious roles, but not always under the best production efforts. Not his fault!)
With that said, check out my exclusive reading of IMDb on Danny Trejo:
Trejo has had roles in 181 movies of a various nature, to date.
He's appeared in 56 TV shows, one of them being Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad. His latest, as the voice of Venom on Phineas and Ferb.
He has 22 films he'll be showing up in, under various production stages. His latest movies out (at this moment) include Pendejo, Dead in Tombstone, and Machete Kills.

As you can see, development is a loosey-goosey status that could mean anything from hoped for, to rumored, to possibly actually being in script development. Which even then, script development means little until it gets pitched, bought and pulled into production.
And that concludes Bruce's Exclusive Reading of IMDb.
