Judd Apatow Plans Five-Year Engagement

According to Variety, Judd Apatow has signed up to produce Five-Year Engagement for Universal Pictures.

The project reteams the studio with the duo behind the upcoming comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall: writer-director Nick Stoller and writer-star Jason Segel.

The movie, of course, will be a bawdy, couples comedy that charts the five-year engagement of a man (Segel) and his fiancee, following the ups and downs of their relationship.

"It's definitely an extension of our desire to explore the depth of human misery," Stoller said. "If Sarah Marshall (played by Kristen Bell) and Jason's character had stayed together, this might be the sequel."
