Filming is due to start very soon on Due Date, the new road trip comedy from Hangover director, Todd Phillips. Now THR is reporting that Jamie Foxx will be joining Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis in the movie.
The film is about a father-to-be (Downey Jr.) who has to hitch a ride with Galifianakis’ college slacker character, so that he can get back home in time for his wife (Michelle Monaghan) to give birth. Foxx will add a bit of drama as a longtime pal of Downey Jr.’s character, who used to date the now pregnant Monaghan, and secretly keeps in touch with her.
Of course, Downey Jr and Foxx worked together on The Soloist, so it seems they like each other if they’re preparing to do it again.
Due Date will be out in cinemas next summer.
