In other movie news, Judd Apatow will produce what's being called a "female version" of the Warner Bros. hit movie, "The Hangover," with a slightly skewed title: "Business Trip."
The comedy by Stacey Harman centers on "a group of women who go on a corporate trip but wind up doing anything but business while on company time," reports Variety.
