Nancy Meyers Set to Direct a New Comedy at Sony

Nancy Meyers has committed to directing an untitled comedy for Columbia Pictures. The deal was announced by Sony Pictures Entertainment and will find the director reuniting with the studio where she directed The Holiday and Something’s Gotta Give. Meyers also rewrote the screenplay (Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber handled the original script).
 
Announcing Meyers’ attachment to the project, President of Columbia Pictures Doug Belgrad stated: “We are thrilled with the way this project has turned out and we’re especially excited that Nancy intends to make it her next film. This is the kind of movie that Nancy does better than anyone else and we can’t wait to share this new movie with audiences all over the world.”
 
Meyers’ other credits include The Parent Trap, What Women Want, and It’s Complicated.
 
The Plot:
 
In the new film, the life of an American young woman gets turned upside down when she begins dating a very unlikely young man. The complexities that follow are bigger than both of them. The comedy is set entirely in the UK, the film will have an all British cast with the exception of the female lead.
