Drama Didn't Work--Comedy Will

Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr. made a drama called The Soloist that hardly got any attention.

The pair will team up again though--this time for a comedy--that is sure to get lots of attention.

Foxx has joined the cast of Due Date says The Hollywood Reporter.

Downey Jr. plays an expectant father who finds himself on a road trip with a mismatched partner (Zach Galifianakis), as he races to get there before his wife (Michelle Monaghan) gives birth to his first child.

Foxx will play Downey's longtime pal, who once dated his wife and secretly keeps in touch with her.

"Date" begins shooting this Fall in Atlanta, New Mexico and Los Angeles., under the helm of Todd Phillips and is currently slated for a November 5, 2010 release.
