Topher Grace, Emma Roberts and Hector Elizondo have signed on to cement New Line’s star-studded cast for Valentine’s Day, a Garry Marshall-directed romantic comedy penciled for a February 2010 release.
The trio of thesps joins Julia Roberts—Emma’s aunt—Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Jessica Alba, Shirley MacLaine, Ashton Kutcher and Bradley Cooper in Marshall’s latest rom-com. Anne Hathaway, who collaborated with the director in both Princess Diaries features, will also star.
Much like 2009’s He’s Just Not That Into You, the film contains interweaving stories about five couples and their respective relationship problems. Into You totaled $94 million domestically after its February 5 release, but Marshall’s picture is slated to open in U.S. theatres just two days (February 12) before the actual Valentine’s Day.
Marshall last helmed Georgia Rule, which picked up a disappoinging gross of $18.9 million in 2007. Grace appeared in Spider-Man 3 two years ago, while Roberts is known for her title role in 2007's Nancy Drew. As for Elizondo, Valentine’s Day will mark his 16th pairing with Marshall since 1982.
