Already past the stage of rising star, Judd Apatow took home a Visionary Award at The Hollywood Reporter’s Key Art Awards last week. If you don’t know the guy, you don’t know fun or it’s just because he’s always behind the scenes. Apatow is responsible for billions in revenue from movies like ‘The 40 Year Old Virgin,’ ‘Knocked Up,’ ‘Superbad’ and ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall.’

He also produced ‘Pineapple Express,’ which comes out August 6.

With its $30 million budget ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ was expected to be an easy sell, but the comedy is now expected to do anywhere between $10-$30 million this weekend. The movie is produced by Judd Apatow, responsible for the failure of ‘Drillbit Taylor’, but also for the success of ‘Superbad’ and ‘Knocked up’.

The ‘crude comedy’ has to battle ‘The Forbidden Kingdom,’ with Jackie Chan and Jet Li, which is expected to have a good opening as well. Produced by Weinstein’s Asian branch, ‘The Forbidden Kingdom’ is opening in 3,151 theaters, while ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ will only do 2,798. That’s already a 12.5% bigger chance for a better opening by the Asian guys.
