Apatow adds Hathaway to “Knocked Up”
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Anne Hathaway, currently on screen as Jake Gyllenhaal’s icy wife in “Brokeback Mountain,” is joining the cast of Universal Pictures’ “Knocked Up.”
The actress is set to star opposite Seth Rogen, Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann in the Judd Apatow romantic comedy.
Apatow is writing, producing and directing the movie, which follows a twentysomething guy who finds out he impregnated his one-night stand. The picture will be similar in budget to his last film, “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” which grossed $109.5 million at the domestic box-office and garnered a Writers Guild of America nomination.
Shooting is slated to start in the early summer.
Hathaway, who made her feature debut in the 2001 Buena Vista/Walt Disney hit “The Princess Diaries,” will next be seen in 20th Century Fox’s “The Devil Wears Prada.”
