After much casting back and forth, Kevin Smith has found his leads for his next film, Zack & Miri Make A Porno. And they're good ones too.
Seth Rogen and his fellow 40-Year-Old Virgin star Elizabeth Banks will topline the comedy about two friends who decide to make a pon film in order to solve their money woes. But during production they discover that their feelings for each other may be more than platonic.
The role of Miri had been written for Rosario Dawson, but the actress had to decline the role in order to film Eagle Eye with Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan. Banks is a comedy actress who really deserves a shot at the big time, having been terrific for years in supporting roles in the likes of Slither, TV's Scrubs, as well as 40-Old-Virgin. Porno's likely mix of smut and heart should play perfectly to her strengths.
