Megan Fox In Talks for Judd Apatow’s Next Film

Thanks to commenter stiller for the tip. The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Megan Fox is in negotiations to star alongside Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann in Judd Apatow’s latest directorial feature.

Rudd and Mann are reprising their characters of husband and wife from Apatow’s Knocked Up in a new story by the writer-director. Fox’s role is being kept under wraps.

We’ll keep an eye on the story and let you know when we hear any news!

(via THR)

3/17/2011 UPDATE: Seems as though Judd Apatow has tweeted some links to various stories which mention Megan being in the film so although it’s not 100% confirmed yet, it’s probably pretty close.  Great news for Megan!

3/18/2011 UPDATE: Megan Fox was added as a cast member to the IMDB page for the ‘Untitled Judd Apatow Production‘.

    Great news. I guess negotiations mean they want Megan for the role + Megan wants the role but they are sorting out the details. I don’t think it means Megan is auditioning for the role etc I guess it passed that stage

    Interesting side note Craig linked a comment from someone on Enews a few days ago who said that Megan has already landed the lead role. Its interesting because I couldn’t find any info about it at the time it seems they might have some inside info.

    Agreed. Such great news. I think Megan will do well with comedies; she has a great sense of humour and perhaps now finally people will be able to recognise it.

    Tidbit: she even said back in an EW interview that she think she’d do well with a Judd Apatow script. I definitely think she will!

    megan fox will even make this movie?
    ta or just trading?
    Anyone know if she should do?
    and when it should begin to be recorded ?

    @galvao
    It looks like she will but its not 100% certain yet. Should she do it? Yes I think so and she seems to think so too otherwise she wouldn’t be there
    Some info that Jess posted from IMDB pro

    Jess :
    Some info (though very limited) about the new project from IMDB Pro:

    I am thrilled by this news, I really hope that it can be a great movie; sorry but someone tell me if the project “The Crossing” is still standing?

    @Prince
    IMDB still lists it as in production that’s about all I know I havn’t heard any recent news either way. The celebrity sites that have been saying things like ‘Megan will begin shooting The Crossing once Friends with kids is done’ are just I guess looking at IMDB they probably don’t have another source.

    @ Deon:
    Thank you so much, I hope that this film will make because the plot seemed interesting.

    March 16th, 2011 at 16:22 | #9

    @Prince
    According to IMDB pro It will be made its got the green light but we don’t know if Megan will be in it.

  10. Prince
    March 16th, 2011 at 16:33 | #10

    So Megan could not be part of the film? Why? I really hope there is, I repeat, the film looks interesting, but would not be the same without Megan :((((

    @Prince
    Megan is in negotiations, she still hasn’t signed a contract.

    This is interesting an article just put up on deadline
    http://www.deadline.com/2011/03/albert-brooks-in-talks-for-judd-apatow-pic/
    Seems to suggest Megan is already in the movie. Deadline is a reliable source

    Good for Megan. I hope she`ll get the job.

  16. March 17th, 2011 at 04:46 | #16

    March 17th, 2011 at 14:56 | #21

    megans facebook page has a link on it for the article saying shes in talks to get a role in judd apatows new film so it must be true….especially if the director tweeted about it

  22. Deon Deon
    March 17th, 2011 at 16:08 | #22

    @stiller
    Not really even the article still mentions they are in negotiations

    @craig
    I saw that yesterday, we know its true they are in negotiations but we don’t know if thats done and contracts are signed etc I think its just a formality at this stage

    @galvao
    Still not confirmed that Megan will be in this new movie, No news about the Crossing I don’t know whats happening with it

  23. March 17th, 2011 at 16:49 | #23

    Megan Fox has signed on
    http://screenrant.com/megan-fox-judd-apatow-knocked-up-spinoff-sandy-106417/
    and what he says here is true?

  24. Deon Deon
    March 17th, 2011 at 17:11 | #24

    @galvao
    That says the same thing as the deadline article I linked yesterday, I don’t know if that means its a done deal and I don’t know how reliable screenrant is plus they are sourcing Deadline and THR no new source. Deadline and THR are very reliable.
    I don’t know what in “talks” and “in negotiations” means in Hollywood speak but to me it means nothing is 100% confirmed.

  25. March 17th, 2011 at 17:20 | #25

    Deon
    ta not understand it yes or confirmed?
    as it seems?
    this site looks good and reliable
    what do you think yes or no

  26. Deon Deon
    March 17th, 2011 at 17:21 | #26

    @galvao
    no its not confirmed but they are close

  27. March 17th, 2011 at 17:21 | #27

    Megan also came out in the list of the sexiest play boy

    @galvao
    Saw that yesterday didn’t care enough to post it rgrg posted it though

  29. March 17th, 2011 at 17:25 | #29

    has many sites that say that Megan is already confirmed

  30. March 17th, 2011 at 17:52 | #30

    DEON
    aqui também diz que ela esta confirmada

    @galvao
    I dont know what naanoo.com is but “Megan Fox will reportedly for Judd Apatow’s’ On the first spin-off Mal’ occur alongside Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann in front of the camera.”

    Until someone from Megan’s team, the movie team or a source like THR/Deadline say Megan is confirmed it isn’t confirmed imo. Like I said its almost confirmed but no reliable source has come out and said Megan has signed on. Although deadline, THR and the director all seem to be implying it until they say it directly I won’t start celebrating lol

  32. March 17th, 2011 at 21:27 | #32

    I was on my way home and I see Megan coming out of paramount studio on her way home too. http://yfrog.com/h2hlkjgj

    March 17th, 2011 at 23:43 | #43

    @Andie
    Whats the deal with plates in LA? do they allow an owner to buy a set and place them on multiple cars?

  44. March 17th, 2011 at 23:44 | #44

    megan what did in the (studio paramount?

  45. Deon Deon
    March 17th, 2011 at 23:45 | #45

    @galvao
    Transformers was with paramount

  46. March 17th, 2011 at 23:47 | #46

    so why do you think it was megan
    tf by 3 or what?

  47. Deon Deon
    March 17th, 2011 at 23:51 | #47

    @galvao
    Are you saying Megan was at paramount studio today? where did you see that?

  48. Andie
    March 17th, 2011 at 23:54 | #48

    Thanks Deon. So they have 4 cars. And only them can have that dark side plate? Sorry about the question but I don’t know how this works in LA.

    Also, yes, Transformers was with Paramount. Do you guys think they called her because of T3? Like if they want to use her image in the beggining of the movie, she has to be informed, right? Rights of Image.

    Or do you think they want to make another movie with her? I remember some people saying around the time of the news about her departure of T3 that Paramount “cut relations” with her but I don’t know if this is true.

  49. Deon Deon
    March 18th, 2011 at 00:06 | #49

    @Andie
    Im not sure about the number plates thing either that’s why I asked. Here only one car can have a specific plate plus the fancy writing isn’t allowed either it has to be block characters.

    Paramount called Megan? where did you see that?

    edit nvm LOL I think AF1 is joking around, I feel stupid now

  50. March 18th, 2011 at 00:06 | #50

    I was on my way home and I see Megan coming out of paramount studio on her way home too. http://yfrog.com/h2hlkjgj
