Apatow to produce Black-starrer Year One, every other comedy released for the next fifty years
I do not need a microphone, I’m POWERFUL!
The frat-pack incest circle grows ever-more incesty; Judd Apatow – whose Knocked Up kicked ass this weekend – will produce Year One starring “Jables” Black as well as Michael “George-Michael” Cera (who stars in Apatow’s upcoming Superbad). Year One will be directed by ghostbuster Harold Ramis (recently seen in Apatow’s Knocked Up), who co-wrote the script with “The Office” penmen Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg (”The Office” of course stars frequent Apatow muse Steve Carell) and will be exec produced by… wait for it… Owen Wilson.
Year One is about how-the-fuck-should-I-know and will probably be hilarious, except for that one moment-of-shit tear-jerker scene toward the end of the third act; you know, where the main character tells the romantic interest how much she means to him, and how this whole wacky adventure has been about him trying to resolve his issues with his dad so he can finally learn to love. Inevitable cameos will be made by Will Farrell, Ben Stiller, John C. Reilly, Paul Rudd, The Naked Trucker guys, Seth Rogen, the entire cast of Freaks and Geeks, that creepy Mike White guy, every comedian whose ever done a Monday at Largo’s, several Mr. Show bit players, Ventura Boulevard and Adam McKay’s wife’s pap smear. Columbia Pictures will studio. Yes, I just used the word “studio” as a verb. Bite me.
