Here’s the first poster for Judd Apatow’s This is 40, the upcoming sorta sequel to Knocked Up.

In addition to Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann reprising their roles from Knocked Up, Jason Segel, Megan Fox, Lena Dunham (Girls rules), and Melissa McCarthy also star.

It’s my #5 most anticipated film and the trailer did nothing to change that.  Roll on December 21st.

Nikki Finke, the acid tongued queen of Hollywood news and gossip, has a report pending which says that Funny People, Judd Apatow’s latest, has opened to only $8 million on Friday and a $22 million weekend.

I have a hard time understanding why the movie would do so poorly considering it’s getting pretty great reviews (63% on Rotten Tomatoes), has a fantastic cast (Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Eric Bana, Jonah Hill, and a great director in Judd Apatow.  The only thing I can figure is that people are put off by the cancer storyline and the 2 hr 20 mins runtime.

Box office disappointment or not, I’m still dying to see it, so they’re at least guaranteed my $14.
