James McAvoy says I'm With Cancer
He'll co-star with Seth Rogen

James McAvoy has joined the adaptation of Will Reiser's novel I'm With Cancer.
Friends With Money director Nicole Holofcener will be calling the shots in January for the film, which already stars Seth Rogen.
Unusually for Rogen, he didn't write this one - that job went to Will Reiser himself, putting an extra comedic spin on his experiences battling the disease in his '20s.
But Rogen will be producing, alongside regular partner Evan Goldberg, and they've finally locked down a shoot that will follow his turn on The Green Hornet.
