Official book tie-in to the original comedy written by the acclaimed writer/director Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up), starring Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, and Leslie Mann. In Funny People, writer/director Judd Apatow finds humor in one of the biggest struggles of a person’s lifetime. Through the story of a famous comedian, George Simmons (Adam Sandler), who has a near-death experience, and what he does with a second chance, Apatow addresses a question that hasn’t been touched with such trademark bluntness: If you had the chance to start all over again, would you be the same jerk you always were? The film stars Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Eric Bana, Jonah Hill, Jason Schwartzman , RZA, Aziz Ansari, and Aubrey Plaza. In addition to the complete screenplay, this Newmarket Shooting Script® Book includes an introduction by actor Jason Schwartzman, a film review by David Denby, a Q&A with stand-up comedian Charles Fleischer, a color photo section with 43 color photos, George Simmons movie posters, an afterword by Judd Apatow, and the complete cast and crew credits.
