"How I Met Your Mother" and Marvel's The Avengers

The original film was directed by Ken Scott and written by
Scott and Martin Petit and starred Patrick Huard as David Wozniak, an adult
slacker (Vaughn) who learns that, as a sperm donor with the alias
"Starbuck," he's fathered over 500 children. When a large group of
them petition the sperm bank to reveal his identity, David has to decide
whether or not to come forward while, in his personal life, his own girlfriend
(Smulders) makes a decision about whether or not he should be the father of
their potential child.
Scott will write and direct the English-language remake,
which is targeted to film later this year.
