Anna Faris and
cross-dressing British comedian Eddie Izzard have signed
on to join Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson in Ivan Reitman's
comedy Super Ex. The story centers on a man (Wilson)
who learns that his girlfriend (Thurman) is a
superhero and breaks up with her when she becomes too
controlling and neurotic. She then uses her powers to
torment and embarrass him. Faris will play Hannah, the love
interest of Wilson's character. Izzard will play the
villainous Professor Bedlam. Faris, whose credits
include the Scary Movie franchise, stars in the
upcoming films Just Friends and Waiting.
Izzard, who is developing a dark comedy series for FX
as a starring vehicle, is best known for the Emmy-winning
special Eddie Izzard: Dress to Kill. (Tatiana
