Once a Judd Apatow star, always a Judd Apatow star. Fresh off her success from 'Bridesmaids' -- now the highest-grossing Apatow movie ever -- Melissa McCarthy has just signed on to Apatow's next film, which he wrote and directed.

Joining McCarthy will be 'Super 8' star Ryan Lee (he's the kid who loves blowing things up in the film) along with Apatow veterans Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann, who will once again be reprising their 'Knocked Up' roles as husband and wife.

Details on the plot are scarce, however, The Hollywood Reporter states that McCarthy will be playing the mom of Lee, who attends the same school as Rudd and Mann's kid.




Are you guys excited to see McCarthy in another Apatow film?
