Bradley Cooper & Jason Segel battle to be taught a lesson from the BAD TEACHER!
Comedy casting boxing match... In one corner, great looking, blue-eyed, star of the moment - Bradley Cooper (The Hangover, All About Steve, Valentine's Day, He's Just Not That Into You). In the other, quirky, fearless, geeky, but always awkwardly hilarious - Jason Segel (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I Love You Man, How I Met Your Mother). Just Jared (not really a news site, but we believe them) claims the male role in Bad Teacher, the movie about a filthy-mouthed middle school teacher (Cameron Diaz) who fights for the attention of the schools model teacher after shes dumped by her boyfriend is down to the above two actors. So will it the conventional 21st century Hollywood lead Cooper, or the more relatable for most men - the award geek Segel? The site claims filming begins in L.A. next week from Jake Kasdan (Zero Effect, Orange County) working off a script by Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupinsky - writers of Year One, The Office and the upcoming Ghostbusters 3.
