The Hollywood Reporter has an update on Year One, the “biblical comedy” that is currently being produced by Judd Apatow and directed by Harold Ramis:
Actress-screenwriter June Diane Raphael is in final negotiations to play Jack Black’s love interest in Harold Ramis’ biblical comedy “Year One” for producer Judd Apatow and Columbia.
Raphael will play Maya, a woman who becomes romantically involved with Zed (Black) and another man in her village. “Superbad” leads Michael Cera and Christopher Mintz-Plasse also star in the ensemble comedy.
Oliver Platt, David Cross, Vinnie Jones and Juno Temple also are in final negotiations for the film, written by Ramis, Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg. Principal photography is set to begin in January for the project, which Matt Tolmach and Jonathan Kadin are overseeing for the studio. . . .
FWIW, the only film I have seen Raphael in is David Fincher’s Zodiac, in which she played Mark Ruffalo’s wife.
