LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Robert Downey Jr. will join Zach Galifianakis in Todd Philips' "Due Date," Entertainment Weekly reported.
Robert will star as a dad-to-be who has to race across the country in time for his child's birth, with Zach playing what the mag called an "unlikely travel companion."

The film will find Zach reuniting with Todd, who directed him in this summer's surprise hit "The Hangover" - which, with over $240 million in box office grosses, has become the highest-earning R-rated comedy in history.
"Due Date" could potentially start filming this fall with a summer 2010 release in mind.

T MooreHe is so gorgeous. I've been huge fan of his since Less Than Zero. I'm glad to see that his rockiest times appear to be behind him and that he is getting the limelight that he deserves. He is one of those actors that epitomizes Generation X.report abuseposted July 25, 2009 11:20 PM PDT
