In 2005
The 40-Year-Old Virgin 2 (2025) scheduled for release in middle of 2025. The original 2005 film, directed by Judd Apatow, starred Steve Carell as Andy Stitzer, a 40-year-old electronics store employee who has yet to lose his virginity. His friends, portrayed by Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, and Romany Malco, embark on a mission to help him navigate the complexities of dating and relationships.
In recent years, there have been occasional references to the film. For instance, during the Super Bowl in early 2024, a commercial featuring Paul Rudd and Seth Rogen revisited one of the movie’s iconic scenes. However, Judd Apatow chose not to participate, expressing skepticism about modernizing the joke. Despite his reservations, Rudd and Rogen proceeded with the ad, which was well-received.
Additionally, in August 2025, the Academy Museum is hosting a 20th-anniversary celebration of The 40-Year-Old Virgin, featuring screenings and discussions about the film’s impact.
While there are no new developments regarding the film, The 40-Year-Old Virgin remains a significant entry in early 2000s comedy, known for its humor and the performances of its cast.
