Knocked Up: The Shooting Script (Newmarket Shooting Scripts)

The official screenplay book tie-in to the hilarious slacker comedy from Universal Pictures by Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Freaks and Geeks) about a very unexpected pregnancy.

They say that opposites attract. For slacker Ben Stone (Seth Rogen) and career girl Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl), that'scertainly the case—at least for one intoxicated evening. Two months and several pregnancy tests later, Ben and Alison go through a hysterically funny, anxious, and heartwarming journey that leads to huge laughs.

Featuring the complete script, plus commentary by filmmaker Judd Apatow and actress Charlyne Yi (who plays Jodi in the movie), stills from the film, full cast and crew credits, and an article by Sarah Vance that appeared in Script magazine, this Newmarket Shooting Script® book will be irresistible to the growing legion of Judd Apatow fans.

Judd Apatow, writer and director of Knocked Up, made his feature directorial debut with The 40-Year-Old Virgin. He is the producer of Superbad, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, and The Cable Guy, and executive producer of the award-winning cult favorite TV series Freaks and Geeks. Previously he worked as a writer, director, and producer on The Larry Sanders Show. He started out as a stand-up comedian, and while still in high school created a radio show on which he interviewed comics such as Steve Allen, Howard Stern, John Candy, and Jerry Seinfeld.
