Paul Rudd Reviews, Interviews & More
Acting as yet another placeholder in lieu of any actual footage from the film (just like the first teaser), the second teaser for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues is now here, acting as a stopgap to keep us all interested until official footage is actually released. And usually, such crass advertising would be kind of annoying or obvious; here, though, it’s just quite...
Are you going through 30 Rock withdrawal? There's no need to fear because Tina Fey's currently at a theater near you. The actress, producer and writer stars in the new film Admission. Directed by Paul Weitz, and based on the book of the same name, Admission is a humorous and heartwarming character-study.
This Is 40 is Judd Apatow's hilarious love letter to the people he loves most: his wife, Leslie Mann, and two daughters, Maude and Iris Apatow. In his fourth directorial outing, the comedy director fleshes out the marriage of Debbie and Pete, the neurotic couple from 2007's Knocked Up, played by Mann and Paul Rudd. Once again, Mr. Apatow is able to deliver a movie that is LOL...
In This Is 40, Judd Apatow's sort-of sequel to Knocked Up, Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd reprise their roles as the neurotic Debbie and Pete. Albert Brooks joins them as Pete's inappropriate, money-sucking father; and Megan Fox wears a bikini. (All in all, great casting.) At the film's press day, we got the chance to talk to some of the cast members, and talked to us about...
Wow, this December is packed with films to see. This has to be one of the best looking film months in a long time. From limited release pictures like Zero Dark Thirty, to big mainstream films like The Hobbit and Les Miserables, we keep hearing good words about what's coming in the next month, and we're pleasantly...
Normally, screenwriters don't like to spill too many details about the scripts they're writing. But Aaron Sorkin is not your normal screenwriter. The man revealed tons of details about his Steve Jobs biopic, including when it'll take place, how many scenes there will be, and how the film will be shot. Also, the Admission trailer, starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd was...
Judd Apatow’s latest salvo in making sure he casts wife Leslie Mann in absolutely everything, This is 40 is the “sort of sequel” to Knocked Up, featuring as it does the return of Mann and Paul Rudd’s supporting characters from that film—a turbulently married couple with two children. And, once again, we get the story of a wacky man-child and...
This is a good week for some of the most interesting films of 2012 so far, and some of the best television going these days. There’s also one of Madonna’s big “Gimme an Oscar” movies, and some Criterion awesomeness. Check out this week’s best DVD and Blu-ray releases…
Anchorman: The Legend Continues (or Anchorman 2, for those of you with short attention spans) dropped a new teaser onto the internet this morning (as if new teases for Skyfall and The Master weren’t enough for one day). A bit of a rush job, there’s no new footage in the Anchorman: The Legend Continues teaser, but it does round up Will Ferrell, Paul...
Ever since the March announcement that Anchorman 2 was finally happening, fans have been waiting for any kind of preview of the long-awaited sequel. This week, we get two—teasers for the film have been attached to prints of The Dictator, and today, we have a teaser poster heralding the film, it’s new official title, and a loose release date. Check it out after the...
It didn't take long for Judd Apatow to segue into Dramedy, did it? The director, who launched Steve Carell and Seth Rogen into stardom with The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, seems to want to add a little more pathos into the mix, and maybe that's why there are no laugh out loud moments in the trailer for his upcoming film...
With Amy Poehler handling the writing and directing (and acting!) chores this week, she crafts a sensational episode of Parks and Recreation, where her Leslie Knope finally gets into the debate ring with Bobby Newport. And that means the welcome return of Paul Rudd. The show is running full steam ahead as it prepares for the finale...
With the news that Anchorman was finally getting the sequel its creators had tried to make (for years now), you'd figure they'd have their ideas and plans on lockdown. There was talk of testing it as a stage show, and all sorts of interesting rumors about the directions it could head, but writer/director Adam McKay has talked about their progress so far. He tells...
In his latest, David Wain attempts to make a whole comedy about the dwindling lives of a middle-class couple living in a hippie-infested commune called Elysium. Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston play the leading couple, and share the screen with a talented supporting cast of comedic actors like Joe Lo Truglio (the naked one),...
If you could assemble a cast that includes Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Amy Poehler, Bradley Cooper, Christopher Meloni, and Joe Lo Truglio, you'd have an A-list comedy on your hands these days, and that may be what you get if they make Wet Hot American Summer 2, the long-proposed sequel to 2000's cult comedy. Co-writer and star of the original Michael Showalter said...
The campaign for City Council is heating up on "Parks and Recreation", and who better than Paul Rudd to guest star for a handful of episodes as Leslie's dopey opponent. It was the audio/visual portion of Leslie's campaign with the team showing off their TV production skills. Not a weak story or subplot to be found anywhere near the "Campaign Ad" episode - just great writing and acing start to...
In the trailer for Wanderlust, Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston play a couple dealing with very real world problems. He gets laid off and the duo end up at a commune. As directed by David Wain (who also did Role Models and cult favorite Wet Hot American Summer), the film looks to offers laughs and lots of small roles...
Yesterday, we reported that Megan Fox was set to bring her box office poison unique charm to the set of Judd Apatow’s new film, starring as a yet to be detailed character. Today, it seems, someone with actual comedic talent and chops a little more familiar to the comedy world is now in negotiations to join the cast—Albert Brooks.
Do you remember the bromantic comedy I Love You, Man from a couple years ago? The film starred Paul Rudd and Jason Segel and it features a lot of too close for comfort moments between the heterosexual buddies. The film wasn't a monster hit at the box office but it had some fans, enough to warrant a sequel...or a sort of sequel. Rudd and Segel have joined...
There's not other way of saying it, with My Idiot Brother mainstream Hollywood has officially hit the streets of Sundance. Despite the fact that I will see Paul Rudd (even when I'm supposed to be looking for the best unknown ____ who is soon to be amazing) in anything and enjoy the entire supporting cast, one can't help but wonder what this film is doing at an...
