Jennifer Garner is doing the trendy thing. Like many actors and actresses before her, she is looking to increase her involvement with film. No, she's not stepping up to the director's plate just yet, but she and producing partner Juliana Janes are putting a slate of films together with Warner Bros.
Jennifer Garner Sets Up with Warner Bros
Garner and Janes have an entire production slate ready to go at Warner Bros. starting with:
Be With You
Remake of the Japanese drama, the film centers on a woman who, after dying, returns for a brief second chance to figure out her purpose. Allan Loeb is onboard to pen the screenplay.
Arranged
Originally written by Leob, but being revised by Krista Vernoff, film chronicles a modern-day arranged marriage of an unlikely couple whose fathers are friends from the old country. Gary Winick will direct.
Devil in the Junior League
Based on Linda Francis Lee's novel, Devil tells the story of a stuffy, Southern socialite whose husband disappears with another woman and the wife's fortune. Kate Kondell has been picked up to write the script.
Sabbatical
Written by John Brownlow, story revolves around a couple in their seventh year of marriage who decide to take a two-week sabbatical from each other to inject some life back into their union.
The Garden of Last Days
No writer has been selected, but it should come easy as it is based on a forthcoming book by Andrew Dubus III.
3 Days in Europe
Based on the graphic novel, Europe is a romantic adventure following a couple as they face danger and excitement on what was supposed to be the perfect Valentine's Day vacation.
As expected, all projects will be developed as a starring vehicle for Garner.
