Jason Sudeikis to guest-star in Eastbound & Down

Jason Sudeikis has reportedly landed a recurring role on the next season of Eastbound & Down. According to Variety, Sudeikis will play Shane, a friend of Danny McBride's character Kenny Powers. Jason Sudeikis has previously guest-starred on shows like 30 Rock, The Cleveland Show and It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

The news comes just as Sudeikis' latest movie "Horrible Bosses" opens in theaters nationwide.

Andy Samberg joins Hotel Transylvania Voice Cast

The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Andy Samberg will lend his vocal talents to the upcoming animated 3D family comedy, "Hotel Transylvania". Samberg joins a cast that includes the likes of Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Steve Buscemi, Fran Drescher, David Spade, Cee-Lo Green and Molly Shannon. 

According to the trade, "Sandler is voicing Dracula in the tale, which makes the Transylvanian count not only an owner of a “five-stake” resort away from the human world but also an overprotective dad trying to shield his teenaged daughter. This goes awry when a human stumbles upon the resort and falls for the girl."

Samberg will voice the role of "Jonathan, a 21-year-old regular guy, carefree and full of life, whose world travels land him at the Hotel."

Congratulations to Bridesmaids which became the highest-grossing female R-rated comedy this weekend, surpassing Sex And The City. Not only is the Kristen Wiig vehicle the highest-grossing Apatow venture, it is also the highest-grossing debut film from an SNL cast member. Bridesmaids' domestic gross now stands at $153,798,000.

Yay for everything.

Dream podcast. That's all.

Another weekend, another lucrative span of time for Bridesmaids. This weekend, the film's cumulative gross reached an impressive $136,450,725, while its worldwide total currently stands at  $144,050,725 . It is second only to Knocked Up as the most commercially successful Apatow-produced cinematic venture, an impressive feat by all accounts. The film will continue to be rolled out internationally in the coming weeks, and I fully expect it to find the same audience overseas.

A hearty congratulations to all involved!

Q&A with Seth Meyers | The Hollywood Reporter

The Q&A covers Meyers’ favourite moments from the season, dealing with the Arnold Schwarzenegger scandal on SNL, the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and of course, Weekend Update. When asked whether he could foresee himself ever getting a Weekend Update co-anchor, Meyers replied, “The hard part would be imagining anyone other than Amy Poehler. She was my closest friend on the show, and she steers the ship very well. I miss arguing with her — we both come from arguing backgrounds. She’s one of the great all-time arguers.”
