A sequel to Jason Segal’s hit comedy is in the works, which would centre around Brand’s obnoxious rock star character, Aldous Snow.
UK website Chortle reports that Segal and Sarah Marshall herself, Kristen Bell, have been approached but nothing has been confirmed. Jonah Hill, however, would be back, “a wet-behind-the-ears insurance adjuster instructed to ensure Brand’s wildman gets to a gig.”
Kristen Bell recently cleared up any confusion people may have had about her nude scenes, or lack thereof, in the film Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
“Hey, let me make one thing perfectly clear, I’m not naked,” Bell told Parade magazine. “Jason (Segel) did have a full frontal moment. It’s done for the joke. I was never asked to take my shirt off. I do have a big sex scene, but nobody ever said, ‘Maybe you could show your boobs since this is an R-rated movie.’ OK, I do have to fake an orgasm on camera, and during that scene I kept thinking, ‘My father is going to see this.’ ”

Forgetting Sarah Marshall didn’t top the box office this weekend but still came in a close second place to The Forbidden Kingdom. The movie made $17,348,000 in it’s opening week.
Not since Bart Simpson revealed his doodle last summer has a cast been asked so many questions about full frontal nudity. The ensemble behind Forgetting Sarah Marshall was barraged with inquiries about Jason Segel’s bare breakup at the Hollywood premiere of his movie.”At one point there was a nylon sock involved,” says costar Kristen Bell, who dumps Segel’s character while he’s in the nude. “I tell you, that draws more attention to it than you really need there, so we said, ‘Ditch the sock, let’s just pretend you’re not naked.’”
Segel admits that the nudity was his idea, and that he discovered it’s not easy being a guy in this case. “One of the great things about female nudity is that at least they have the comfort of knowing that men have all different kinds of preferences. There’s not that many women out there who like small penises, but I think I came out all right. Let’s see if I ever get a date.”
Segel getting a date may have less to do with his choice (or lack) of attire and more to do with the fact that Sarah Marshall is based on all his bad dating experiences. “It’s 10 years of hapless dating,” he ruefully told reporters. “My relationship ends with me getting dumped and some woman driving away from my house wildly relieved to be free, and it just sounds like Cinco de Mayo in her car, like, ‘Whoo!’ But I’m seeking revenge tonight.” — Carita Rizzo
