Video: Funny or Die Welcomes Judd Apatow

Note: real talk and colorful language ahead. Video via Cynthia Littleton.

No longer interested in having people leave the house to see their films, Judd Apatow has joined Will Ferrell and Adam Mckay (director of Anchorman, Talladega Nights) in their joint venture video site: FunnyorDie.com, reports Variety. Heralding the online Frat Pack alliance, Apatow said, “Adam and Will and myself have been friends for many years, and we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to create a situation where the friendship could not survive.”

Judd has already been a part of the site in spirit, as outtakes and shorts stemming from both Knocked Up and the Apatow produced Superbad have shown up there, but he’s now a full fleged partner. Look for already shot videos featuring both Ferrell and Mckay on the way, and you can likely count on seeing more friends of Apatow, meaning more R-rated material from Cera, Hill, (Kristen Wiig, please?) and Rogen in the foreseeable future.

For a refresher, many of their friends in the biz can be seen on the Chosen Ones page. Entry level: the 47 million hit, break out performance seen in the The Landlord.
