Wu-Tang producer/emcee RZA will be co-starring in the upcoming comedy Funny People which is set to hit theaters on July 31. The film, directed by Judd Apatow, also stars Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, and Leslie Mann.
The film is about a very successful stand up comedian (Sandler) who learns that he has an untreatable blood disorder and is given less than a year to live.
At a red carpet interview for the premier of Funny People, RZA tells MTV:
“[The Apatow] style of comedy is like hip-hop. Seth and those guys are Wu-Tang fans; we talked a lot about hip-hop. He knows a lot of lyrics.”
Check out the trailer after the break.

it has been a long time coming rza should have been on the movie seen hes a good producer no a hell of a producer at that
RZA’s a legit actor, and he picks good roles to play which is important because he doesn’t want to look like a donkey.
I’m sure he gets some good pointers while he’s working on all those movie soundtracks he does. I talked about him in my own blog at http://nosoysauce.com he has an impressive movie history
hey i like your blog, can u check out my blog then shoot me an email i have some questions for you.
thanks,
