Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman will appear in a risqué comedy segment for Peter Farrelly (There's Something About Mary) in an upcoming anthology movie.
Farrelly's short will see Jackman play a man whose testicles are located under his chin. Winslet is to play a woman who goes out on a date with Jackman's character, and is the only person who notices the unfortunate placement of his genitalia.
Zombieland actress Emma Stone - who is starring with Kieran Culkin in one of the 17 shorts making up the project - revealed details on the Winslet/Jackman film in an interview with Movieline.
She said: "[It's] kind of like Kentucky Fried Movie. In that vein. It's just really, really funny. Kieran Culkin and I did our short together a couple of weeks ago, directed by Griffin Dunne. But wait until you see the Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman one. That's the only other one I've seen. The humor is so raunchy.
"All of the stories are completely different. I think they're going to tie them together; I don't know how. I can't give it away, but theirs is called The Catch. He's a bachelor... but there's a catch. She's going on a date with this bachelor, and you will not believe what you see when you see it. It's so f**king funny."
Elizabeth Banks, Bob Odenkirk and Brett Ratner are also directing segments of the untitled movie, while Gerard Butler, Naomi Watts, Chloe Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Justin Long and Sam Rockwell are among the cast.
