Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. To a lot of you these are two actorswhose work you generally avoid at all costs. And with a few exceptions (PUNCH DRUNK LOVE, FUNNY PEOPLE, THE GOOD GIRL), you have good reason. So I don't expect many people to be optimistic about a romantic comedy that stars both Adam Sandler AND Jennifer Aniston.The two are in talks to star in PRETEND WIFE, a comedy that would once again reteam Sandler with director Dennis Dugan (GROWN UPS, ZOHAN, CHUCK & LARRY, etc.). While no formal plot description was provided (no spoiler alerts here!!), but considering the script was originally titled HOLIDAY IN HAWAII, I'm going to go out on a limb that Sandler's character wants to go on a honeymoon so he hires a woman to pretend to be his wife and along the way they fall in love and so on and so forth. The script was written by Allan Loeb, who just wrote the Aniston comedy THE BASTER, and Tim Dowling who wrote the once famous short "George Lucas in Love."
Because the Valentine's Day weekend is becoming almost as important as 4th of July or Christmas, Sony has already staked out February 11, 2011 as a release date. Yay.
Should be interesting none the less.
Can someone fix the title of the thread, I missed it up.
