Eminem will appear in
Judd Apatow‘s “
Funny People.” It's only a cameo, so that will be probably just the one scene. This was just the rumor but the first picture of his appearance is now online. We've got the very first look at Eminem's tableside chat with
Adam Sandler's character, a comedian named George Simmons.
Marshall Mather – Eminem has only a small role in the film, but rounds out an extremely impressive cast that includes
Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Eric Bana, Jonah Hill, Jason Schwartzman, Sarah Silverman, Norm MacDonald, Aziz Ansari, RZA, Dave Attell among the others.
When seasoned comedian George Simmons (Sandler) learns of his terminal, inoperable health condition, his desire to form a genuine friendship causes him to take a relatively green performer (Rogen) under his wing as his opening act.
The movie both written and directed by Judd Apatow is inspired by his own real life experiences and will be released this summer on July 31st, 2009.
