Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann and Eric Bana are already aboard Judd Apatow's upcoming Funny People, but they've now been joined by Jason Schwartzman and Jonah Hill. That means that this film's levels of comedy talent are approaching critical mass, so that they'll either spend the entire shoot cracking each other up or sitting morosely in silence, saving their funny for the camera.
Little is known about the plot so far, except that it's set in the world of stand-up comedy and is about a comedian who has a near-death experience. The original four stars have all worked as stand-up comedians at one time or another; we're not sure about these latest two, but they're pretty funny so it hardly matters.
Shooting starts in September, and we'll be keeping an eye out in case of further funny casting between now and then.
