LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Elizabeth Banks and Rachel Weisz are in negotiations for "Definitely, Maybe," a romantic comedy from Working Title and Universal Pictures.
Written and directed by Adam Brooks, "Definitely" centres on a soon-to-be-divorced political consultant who has to answer some hard questions from his 11-year-old daughter as he explains his promiscuous past. Ryan Reynolds, Derek Luke and Isla Fisher already have been cast.
Banks will play Reynolds’ college sweetheart, who dumps him for his brother. Weisz will play a woman Reynolds dates after Banks.
Banks, who will next be seen in Disney’s sports drama "Invincible," which opens August 25, recently wrapped production on "Bill" opposite Aaron Eckhart and Jessica Alba. The actress is best known for her roles in "Seabiscuit" and "The 40-Year-Old Virgin."
