Just, no. He seems like a smart character. What kind of career do you think he ended up with where he can't take a day or a week off work? Jobs where you aren't allowed to take a personal day or a vacation day - those are jobs for teenagers and college students. Or people who end up being a burger flipper.
A movie about a teenager playing hooky from school and doing all sorts of things around the city, that worked fine. A movie about an adult calling in sick to work then having fun - that would be cringeworthy.
Possibly Ferris could be the boss or parent, and the younger person is ditching school or work. And this time it's Bueller who is in Rooney's position. That may work.
