Can Sarah Marshall Bag Some Funny Money?
Glen Wilson/Universal Pictures
Yes, yes. You've all heard it by now. Superproducer Judd Apatow is the current king of comedy. Last year he had big hits with Knocked Up and Superbad, and he has a long list of films on the horizon, as writer or producer (You Don't Mess with the Zohan, Pineapple Express, Step Brothers—and that's just this summer).
Don't let the funny face fool you. Judd needs a hit. His last two projects, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and Drillbit Taylor, were flops. (I do love that Dewey Cox, though. Give it a try on DVD).
Luckily, he has Forgetting Sarah Marshall opening this weekend. Written by its star and longtime Apatow regular Jason Segel, it's a heartfelt romantic comedy that will appeal to both male and female audiences.
Look for Sarah Marshall to open at $26.7 million. That's great for a film featuring a bunch of actors best known for their TV work.
What do you think? Is Judd back on top? Sound off in the comments.
