Judd Apatow wants you to be part of his next movie! And no, it's not a joke. Apatow is currently shooting his next comedy "Funny People," and he'll give someone out there a chance to win a short walk-on role in the flick.

All you have to do is head over to the film's MySpace page and briefly describe why should win the role. It's a very simple task, and if you're lucky, you may soon share the same set with Seth Rogen, Adam Sandler, Leslie Mann and others.

At this point, we don't know that much about "Funny People," except that it's set in the world of standup comedy and focuses on a comedian who has a near-death experience.

In addition to the contest and a personal message from Apatow, you'll also find a teaser poster over on the MySpace page. I've included it right after the jump.

Look for "Funny People" in theaters July 31, 2009.
