Sarah Jessica Parker Cast in Failure to Launch

By James Wray Feb 3, 2005, 10:24 GMT

Sarah Jessica Parker has been cast alongside Matthew McConaughey in "Failure to Launch", a Paramount Pictures comedy to be directed by Tom Dey (Shanghai Noon) and produced by Scott Rudin. Production on the film begins in April.

Variety reports McConaughey will play a thirtysomething guy who lives with his parents and uses them as a way to avoid committing to a woman. He changes his mind when he meets the mate of his dreams (Parker). But the slacker has the nagging suspicion that his parents may have hired her in a desperate attempt to get him out of their house.
