Adam Sandler has agreed to headline a Judd Apatow film about stand-up comics. Seth Rogen and Leslie Mann have signed on to also star in the untitled Judd Apatow - Adam Sandler project. Production is set to begin later this year and the film is slated for a theatrical release July 31, 2009.
There are also reports that Eric Bana is in talks with Apatow to star in the movie as well, playing boyfriend to Leslie Mann. When you look at Eric Bana's resume in Hollywood, you probably wouldn't expect him to show up in a big, flashy comedy. But, back home in Australia, Bana is known for his comedy - he's just never had the chance to show it in the United States... until now.
We do know the movie will focus on the world of stand-up comedians. The project has been on the radar since March, but outside the good news that Apatow was going to direct, there wasn't much to report.
Eric Bana is currently wrapping up work on "Star Trek" with Winona Ryder, a chronicle of the early days of James T. Kirk and his fellow USS Enterprise crewmembers. Also due soon is the romantic drama "The Time Traveler's Wife". Bana is also currently working on the animated movie "Mary and Max", and then he'll star alongside Terrence Howard in "Factor X."
Leslie Mann was last seen in "Drillbit Taylor" with Owen Wilson, and can be seen this August in the comedy "Seventeen Again" with Zac Efron. Mann is currently filming the comedy "I Love You Phillip Morris" starring Jim Carrey, a true story of Steven Russell (Jim Carrey), a married father whose exploits landed him in the Texas criminal justice system.
Adam Sandler can currently be seen in "You Don't Mess With The Zohan".

Are Kate Hudson And Lance Armstrong Over Owen Wilson?
Top-secret best friends Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong couldn't hide their love for each other on the Riviera while they graced the Dolce & Gabbana party in Cannes last week.
A source told the press that Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong "were holding hands in their car and when photographers' flashes started going off, Kate jumped up, startled."
"But inside the party they were kissing and looking very comfortable," said the source, adding, "they've been staying together on a big yacht, which is moored in the bay of Cannes. They're very much an item. "
We wonder if Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson split up because Owen didn't have a big yacht?

Kate Hudson And Owen Wilson Are Separating
Hollywood darlings Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson have separated, according to People.
The break comes less than three months after the couple revived their relationship in Miami.
"It was a pretty bad breakup," a source close to Wilson told People. "Owen said it was a tough one. He definitely doesn't want to dwell on it. He wants to put it behind him."
The pair first began dating in September 2006.
The split comes on the news of apparently false information that the couple had actually gotten engaged. Kate had been spotted wearing a Tiffany & Co. ring on and off the set of her new film, "Bride Wars."
However, it was later revealed the ring was just a movie prop.
