Judd Apatow & Pete Davidson comedy gets a 2020 release date
It's been roughly four years since audiences have seen Judd Apatow behind the director's chair for the big screen, but he and Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson's upcoming collaboration will give audiences a chance to see the comedic veteran rise again. Universal Pictures has announced the film's release date will be June 19, 2020.

Davidson wrote the script to the film along with Apatow and Dave Sirus, which is described in the report "as a semi-autobiographical story of Davidson growing up in Staten Island, New York." The young actor lost his father in 9/11, an event that that obviously had a vital impact on his life. At age 16 he jumped into stand up and used "stark, truthful" language on sensitive topics, including the loss of his father.
Barry Mendel (Funny People) will produce alongside Apatow.
Davidson joined SNL when he was just 20 years old, and has since appeared in numerous TV shows including Brooklyn Nine-Nine and The Jim Gaffigan Show. He also had a bit part in the aforementioned Trainwreck, and has earned critical raves for his performance in the comedy Big Time Adolescence.

Apatow may not have directed a big screen feature since 2015, but he has kept busy with projects such as the 30 for 30 documentary Doc & Darryl, the documentary May It Last: A Portrait of the Avett Brothers, along with TV shows Crashing, Love and The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling.
