The 40 Year-Old Virgin

Plot

Andy Stitzer has a pleasant life with a nice apartment and a job stamping invoices at an electronics store. But at age 40, there's one thing Andy hasn't done, and it's really bothering his sex-obsessed male co-workers: Andy is still a virgin. Determined to help Andy get laid, the guys make it their mission to de-virginize him. But it all seems hopeless until Andy meets small business owner Trish, a single mom.

About The 40 Year-Old Virgin

The 40-Year-Old Virgin is a 2005 American romantic sex comedy film directed by Judd Apatow (in his feature directorial debut), who produced the film with Clayton Townsend and Shauna Robertson. It features Steve Carell as the titular 40-year-old virgin Andy, an employee at an electronics store. Paul Rudd, Romany Malco, and Seth Rogen play co-workers who resolve to help him lose his virginity, and Catherine Keener stars as Andy's love interest, Trish.

It was based on a sketch Carell created with The Second City, in which a 40-year-old man hides a secret. Filming took place in L.A. and The Valley, from January to April 2005. The film was released theatrically in the United States on August 19, 2005, by Universal Pictures, and grossed over $177 million worldwide on a $26 million budget.
