Forgetting Sarah Marshall is an upcoming comedy movie starring Kristen Bell and Jason Segel. The movie is scheduled for a April 18, 2008 release.
Before we cover the story of the movie I have a few words to say about the producer, Judd Apatow. Judd Apatow is on a winning strike at the moment, during 2007 he produced Knocked Up which was a huge hit, Superbad which was comedy of the year and Walk Hard which is a Golden Globe Nominee. So it's easy to say that he has a great eye for talent and Forgetting Sarah Marshall looks like another home run for Apatow.
Synopsis
Struggling musician Peter Bretter (Jason Segel) has spent six years idolizing his girlfriend, television star Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell). He's the guy left holding her purse in paparazzi photos and accidentally omitted from acceptance award speeches. But his world is rocked when she dumps him and Peter finds himself alone. After an unsuccessful bout of womanizing and an on-the-job nervous breakdown, he sees that not having Sarah may just ruin his life.
To clear his head, Peter takes an impulsive trip to Hawaii, where he is confronted by his worst nightmare: his ex and her tragically hip new British-rocker boyfriend, Aldous (Russell Brand), are sharing his hotel. But as he torments himself with the reality of Sarah's new life, he finds relief in a flirtation with Rachel (Mila Kunis), a beautiful resort employee whose laid-back approach tempts him to rejoin the world.
For anyone who has ever had their heart ripped out and cut into a billion pieces comes a hilarious, heartfelt look at relationships.
