Actor Marisa Tomei has boarded the cast of filmmaker Judd Apatow's upcoming comedy film.

The 54-year-old Oscar winner joins Pete Davidson, Bel Powley and Bill Burr in the project, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Apatow plans to direct the comedy from a script he co-wrote along with Davidson and Dave Sirus. The film, which is set in Staten Island, New York, will reportedly use elements from the comedian's life.

Tomei, who will be next seen in "Spider-Man: Far From Home", will play Davidson's mother.

Apatow will produce the film for his banner, Apatow Productions, alongside his frequent collaborator Barry Mendel. The duo have previously worked together on "Bridesmaids", "This Is 40" and "The Big Sick".

 

The film is scheduled to release on June 19, 2020.
