Here it is, your first official look (that’s not the poster) of Judd Apatow’s upcoming summer dramedy, “Funny People.”
We’ve written about it enough, you know the gist; it’s about a stand up comedian (Adam Sandler) who believes he’s dying and then takes a younger comedian (Seth Rogen) under his wing out of loneliness/selfishness and then proceeds to meet up with the (married) love of his life (Leslie Mann), because he thinks this is his final shot. Anywhoo, here’s a bigger version if you’re curious.
Unless you’re living under a rock, the film, which could easily be the most mature, grown-up and even melancholy film Apatow has ever made stars, Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Eric Bana, Jonah Hill, RZA, Aubrey Plaza and Jason Schwartzman. It’s set to open July 31.
melancholy FTW!
