This year’s premieres at SXSW include an unofficial Freaks and Geeks reunion, as both Judd Apatow and Paul Feig will screen their new movies for the festival’s trademark blend of culture buffs, start-up dudes, and Richard Linklater characters. Feig will premiere his upcoming Melissa McCarthy film (not that one) Spy, while Apatow will play a “work-in-progress” version of the Amy Schumer comedy Trainwreck, which could possibly just be three hours of his kids playing in the backyard.
