By Adnan Tezer Aug 27, 2010, 0:44 GMT
Warner Bros. is setting up a remake of the 2008 Argentine romantic comedy "A Boyfriend for My Wife," as a starring vehicle for Steve Carell.
According to Variety, Carell will produce through his Carousel Productions along with Michael Cerenzie and Christine Peters.
Mark Gibson and Phil Halprin ("Snow Dogs") will write the screenplay.
In the original film, "Un novio para mi mujer," a meek husband concludes that the only way out of his unsatisfying marriage is to get his wife to fall in love with another man, so he enlists the help of a well-known ladies’ man.
Juan Taratuto directed the original. No director has been set for the remake.
Carell produced and starred in Warner's marital comedy "Crazy, Stupid Love." Directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, the film opens April 22.
Gibson and Halprin also wrote "The Wild" for Disney and "The Wee Mighty" for Summit.
