It looks like comedic black belts Tina Fey and Steve Carell will be joining forces in Date Night. We get wind of this project from our friends at the movieweb:
Steve Carell and Tina Fey have signed on as a married couple for the comedy Date Night, to be directed by Shawn Levy for 20th Century Fox.
According to Variety, Josh Klausner wrote the script which is based on an idea by Levy, whose 21 Laps will produce. The story follows a couple who find their routine date night becomes much more than just dinner and a movie. Date Night will begin production next year.
I like this team up. Not much news about the story itself, but I can see Carell working well with Fey and am curious to hear further news about this project. When we get the details, we will be sure to pass them along.
International friends – what do you think of a Fey/Carell team up?
