The impressive cast of the Steve Carell/Tina Fey comedy DATE NIGHT continues to get more…impressive. Mila Kunis, Mark Ruffalo and Ray Liotta have signed on to join a cast that already includes Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, Taraji P. Henson, Common, Leighton Meester, Kristen Wiig and Olivia Munn. The film stars Carell and Fey as a bored married couple who attempt to have a fun night on the town, only to run afoul of a bunch of shady characters. Kunis will play the girlfriend of Franco’s character, Ruffalo will play the wife of Wiig and Carell’s best friend and Liotta will play a described “villain of peace.” You’d think with a cast this good, I’d be more excited about this movie but director Shawn Levy has never done anything to inspire me. I hate to say it but nothing in CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN, JUST MARRIED, THE PINK PANTHER or NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM makes me excited to see another comedy. But this kinda has to be good, right? How could you screw up a cast this talented??…
