"Caution: there's a way-against-type cameo spoiled in the below trailer for NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST. Most of you won't care, but die hard fans of Judd Apatow's television output might want to skip out on the last thirty seconds. 
If NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST ends up working (and it better, since I've been waiting for Peter Sollett's follow-up to RAISING VICTOR VARGAS for six years now), it looks like it'll be due to the chemistry of Michael Cera and Kat Dennings. 
I guess Dennings is a bit of an x-factor here: I've liked her in stuff prior to this (most notably THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN), but I don't think I've seen her in a substantial role outside of the kind of awful CHARLIE BARTLETT. Eh, I'm sure she'll be fine.Other than that, it's kind of odd to see Cera playing a character in a band so close to SCOTT PILGRIM. Good thing he appears to be playing rhythm guitar instead of bass".

In the book it's Nick who asks for Norah to be his five minutes girlfriend to avoid his ex-girlfriend Tris, in the film it's Norah who will ask for Nick to kiss her.
In the novel:
Nick: "She sees me. She can’t fake surprise at seeing me here, because of course she fucking knew I’d be here. So she does a little smile thing and whispers something to the new model and I can tell just from her expression that after they get their now-being-poured drinks they are going to come over and say hello and good show and—could she be so stupid and cruel?—how are you doing? And I can’t stand the thought of it. I see it all unfolding and I know I have to do something—anything—to stop it.
So I, this random bassist in an average queercore band, turn to this girl in flannel who I don’t even know and say:
“I know this is going to sound strange, but would you mind being my girlfriend for the next five minutes?”
"The flick tells the tale of Nick, a high school guitar player who has just been dumped by his girlfriend Tris. At Nick’s band’s show, Tris is there on the arm of a new guy. Norah is also at the show, taking care of a friend. Nick is trying to avoid Tris, as is Norah. The two pretend to be lovers for five minutes to show Tris how not uncool they are, and the story takes off from there.Set in Manhattan against the whirlwind of the city lights and excitement, Nick and Norah have an unforgettable adventure sure to win over the hearts of audiences everywhere. Much like indie-hit Juno, this film is just as much about music as it is about storyline, featuring great talent such as: Band of Horses, The Ravonettes, Modest Mouse, and Vampire Weekend, amongst others on the soundtrack.
Starring in Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist are Michael Cera (Nick), Kat Dennings (Norah), Alexis Dziena (Tris), and a crew of other up-and-coming young actors. Based on the novel by young adult author extraordinaire Rachel Cohn (Gingerbread, Shrimp, Cupcake) and David Levithan, this story is surely not one to miss". Source: www.filmschoolrejects.com
