This-Is-40-PosterJudd Apatow’s This Is 40 will be one of the last films to fully enter the Oscar race, debuting in US theatres just in time for Christmas next month on 21st December.

We saw the great first clip from the sort-of sequel to Knocked Up earlier in the week, and now AMC have got another clip to share, giving us a look at leading stars Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann, with the former somewhat ogling Megan Fox.

“Writer/director/producer Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Funny People) brings audiences This Is 40, an original comedy that expands upon the story of Pete (Paul Rudd) and Debbie (Leslie Mann) from the blockbuster hit Knocked Up as we see firsthand how they are dealing with their current state of life.”

Starring alongside Rudd, Mann, and Fox is a brilliant supporting cast, headed up by Jason Segel, Maude and Iris Apatow, Albert Brooks, Chris O’Dowd, John Lithgow, Melisssa McCarthy, and the brilliant Lena Dunham.

Apatow is once more directing from his own script, and serves as producer as well alongside past collaborators Barry Mandel (Serenity, Bridesmaids) and Clayton Townsend (Knocked Up, Bridesmaids).

This Is 40 will be hitting US theatres on 21st December, before coming to the UK a little later for a 14th February, 2013 release, perfectly primed for Valentine’s Day. For now, here’s the great new clip. Enjoy.
