Win a role in new Apatow film about standup

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on November 14th, 2008

Go here to be part of a viral marketing campaign for (and to enter to win a walk-on role in) the new Judd Apatow film, “Funny People.”

It’s the film’s MySpace profile. Go there, befriend it and, in the comments section, tell them, in 100 words or less, why you should be in the movie.

It’s being billed as “The third film from the writer/director of ‘The 40-Year-Old Virgin’ and ‘Knocked Up.'” We suppose that’s because, since the success of those two pics, some of the folks involved with Apatow have written, produced or directed their own projects (and billed them variously as being “From the people who were in some way, shape or form involved with ‘Knocked Up’ and/or ‘The 40-Year-Old Virgin…'”) that Apatow might’ve thought that a little clarification was in order.
