Forgetting Sarah Marshall (which I am seeing tonight, so more on that later) director Nick Stoller is reteaming with Judd Apatow for the comedy Get Him to the Greek, with Jonah Hill and Russell Brand attached to star.
Stoller will to write and direct the comedy, which centers on a fresh-out-of-college insurance adjuster (Hill) who is hired to accompany an out-of-control rock star (Brand) from London to a gig at L.A.'s Greek Theater.
Stoller described "Greek" as a very dirty take on Almost Famous.
Stoller is quite the busy man but why not strike while the iron is hot. He is co-writing and will direct the comedy Five-Year Engagement, with Jason Segal co-writing and attached to star. He and Segal are also collaborating on The Muppet Movie. Stoller's writing credits include the forthcoming Jim Carrey starrer Yes Man.
