Judd Apatow thinks that the comedy genre can be revived in cinemas. The 56-year-old director released his recent films 'The King of Staten Island' and 'The Bubble' on streaming platforms but thinks that the success of just a single blockbuster will get audiences flocking back to theatres. Speaking to Vulture, Judd said: "I assume it'll swing back. "The industry does follow the leader... for comedy, it just requires another hit or two. If a movie like 'The Hangover' came out and it was a big hit, suddenly everyone would want five more of those." The 'Knocked Up' filmmaker continued: "Here's the...
