If I told you that Eric Bana (Munich, Troy, The other Boleyn Girl) used to be a stand up comic back in Australia years ago, you probably wouldn’t believe me, would ya?
Just look at the picture above, he even had his own sketch comedy ala SNL called The Eric Bana Show
well, believe it or not, he started the same way Adam Sandler and every comedian in this country who’ve become movie stars.
The difference is, we know Eric Bana for playing serious roles.
According to CHUD, says that the star from down under has been approached to play Clarke, Leslie Mann’s boyfriend.
Actress Leslie Mann is married to Judd Apatow who’s collaborating with Seth Rogen and Adam Sandler to make movies about stand up comics.
I was at the screening of Zohan and Pineapple Express the other week, and both Seth and Adam said that it’s going to about comedians but that they can’t say anything more about the movie other than that.
