Not everyone loves Judd Apatow's style of comedy, but I for one am a fan. While he has had massive hits with films like The 40 Year Old Virgin & Bridesmaids, my favorite work of his is Knocked Up. This is where we saw Seth Rogen become a star, is the only film that Katherine Hiegel has made since she left Grey's Anatomy that did not annoy me, and is fucking hilarious because it is so much like real life. But the part of the movie that absolutely stole the show was the supporting cast of up & coming all stars & vets that all blew the fuck up after the movie. Paul Rudd, Jonah Hill, Jay Barucel, Jason Segal, Harold Ramis, Joanna Kerns, Craig Robinson... the list goes on and on!!! But the absolute scene stealers of the movie have to be Apatow's wife in real life Leslie Mann & his two real life children Iris & Maude Apatow, who play Rudd's loving wife and children. There family dynamic is so amazing and they are hilarious. So Apatow has decided that instead of a sequel that would focus on Rogen & Hiegel's new life as parents and instead decides to focus on Rudd & Mann's family instead. Here is the trailer for 'This Is 40'. Looks good to me... Trailer after the jump, movie coming out this Christmas. Can you say counter-programming to The Hobbit? I certainely can...
I'll hold off judgement until they write some jokes for the film. ;)
