Paul Rudd& Leslie Mann Married Again for'Knocked Up'Spin-Off« FirstShowing.net

They've already played a married couple in the 2007 comedyKnocked Up, but nowPaul RuddandLeslie Mannwill be wed to each other again.Varietyreports the two actors are apparently reprising their roles fromJudd Apatow'spregnancy comedy for the director's nextuntitled projectwhich is already slated for release onJune 1, 2012. Plot details are being kept under wraps, but Apatow seems to love having his wife (Mann) play house alongside great male comedic talent like Rudd and Adam Sandler (seeFunny People). Apatow will both write and direct the film, and we can probably expect plenty of Apatow's regulars to appea as well.

If the film does follow the same characters fromKnocked Up, there's a chance Seth Rogen and Katherine Heigl could reprise their roles in a supporting capacity. InKnocked Up, Mann played Heigl's sister who was having relationship problems of her own as she suspected her husband (Rudd) of cheating. Instead he was simply looking for some time away from the chaos of marriage and family. The two played off of each other very well, and since their kids were played by Apatow's real-life daughters Maude and Iris, we can probably expect to see them too. While I find Leslie Mann to be a decent actress, I would like to see Apatow go outside of his house to get some more female talent involved with his work.What do you think?
