John Krasinski has 'Something Borrowed'

By Adnan Tezer Mar 10, 2010, 19:57 GMT

John Krasinski is in talks to join Ginnifer Goodwin in Alcon's romantic comedy "Something Borrowed."

The script centers on a Manhattan attorney (Goodwin) who falls in love with her best friend's fiancé on her 30th birthday.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film is based on a series of novels by Emily Giffin beginning with the 2004 book "Something Borrowed." Alcon also picked up rights to the second book, "Something Blue," with a plan to develop it into a sequel.

Krasinski would be playing Goodwin's friend and confidant in the first film. His role would evolve into the male lead for the sequel.

Luke Greenfield is directing with production expected to begin in spring.

Alcon’s Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson are producing with 2S’s Hilary Swank and Molly Smith. Aaron Lubin and Pamela Schein Murphy of Wild Ocean Films are also producing.

Krasinski is best known for his work on NBC's "The Office" and gained notice for his performance opposite Meryl Streep in "It's Complicated."
