Deadline.com reported this afternoon that Dave Bautista is attached to star in romantic comedy The Romantic.
The plot according to the report: "The film tells the story of bestselling romance author Francine London, who has a secret: she’s actually a six-foot-four mountain of a man named Ed Schwenke. When Ed’s identity comes under scrutiny, he hires a wildcard of a woman to pose as Francine at a romance fiction convention, while evading a cynical female journalist, who hates romance even more than she hates liars."
Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont, the team behind the legendarily great Josie & The Pussycats movie as well as cult '90s film Can't Hardly Wait are behind the project.
