  • Eminem's "Funny People" Director Gives Rapper Thumbs Up, "He Was Really Funny & Willi

    Funny People director Judd Apatow recently spoke on Eminem's on-set performance in the upcoming Adam Sandler film and talked about his experience working with the comedic rapper.

    While keeping Em's role under wraps, the director also spoke on Shady's work ethic as an actor.

    "He was a fantastic actor, and the best moments ever in my career were pitching him new jokes to say and making him laugh really hard," Apatwo said in an interview. "He came early and well-prepared. I think he felt like, 'I'm entering a world of comedy here. I got to be on my game.' He was really funny, willing to say anything. I thought if I pitched him certain jokes, he'd say, 'No, no that's too far.'...Apparently, you can't shock Eminem with anything you have to say...To make him laugh super hard was really, really fun, and he's great in the movie. I'm glad that his scene kills, and so it's really exciting." (MTV)
    In addition to Shady, the upcoming film will also feature Wu-Tang Clan's RZA.

    So far, there's no more information available about what kind of role Eminem will play in the film, but a movie photo shows him sitting across from Sandler at a restaurant table, seemingly lending an ear -- perhaps in a friend role? Cast includes Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Eric Bana, Jonah Hill, Jason Schwartzman, Norm MacDonald, Sarah Silverman, Aziz Ansari, RZA, Dave Attell and others. (Michigan Live)
    He is also reportedly being considered for an upcoming role in a Mark Wahlberg film.
