The star that is Eddie Izzard is rising in the west with the news from Coming Soon that he’s added to the cast for the Uma Thurman starrer Super Ex.
Anna Faris and Eddie Izzard have signed on to join Uma Thurman and Owen Wilson in Ivan Reitman’s Super Ex for Regency Enterprises, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The comedy centers on a man (Wilson) who learns that his girlfriend (Thurman) is a superhero and breaks up with her when she becomes too controlling and neurotic. She then uses her powers to torment and embarrass him.
Faris will play Hannah, the love interest of Wilson’s character. Izzard will play Professor Bedlam, the story’s villain.
The cast is fair hotting up for this one, and with Reitman directing it could well be a laugh and a half…or just the half! What do you say, do you think that the hot cast is an indication of a good comedy?
