Napoleon Dynamite and Dax in New Disney Flick
24-Mar-2008
Written by: Sam Belkin
Disney’s “When in Rome” is currently in pre-production.
Disney’s new film, When in Rome, stars Kristen Bell, best known as Veronica Mars from the acclaimed television show of the same name or Elle Bishop from Heroes.
Two more teen stars have signed on to the project, Jon Heder and Dax Shepard. Heder is well known for his role as the idiosyncratic Napoleon Dynamite, or as Will Ferrell’s co-star in Blades of Glory. Shepard has been in films but is more well known for his role on Ashton Kutcher’s TV show, Punk’d.
The film will be directed by Mark Steven Johnson (Ghost Rider 2007), and is written by both Johnson and David Diamond. It’s about a New York real estate agent that flies to Rome for her sister’s wedding. Having picked up coins from the “fountain of love,” she is barraged by male suitors when she gets back home, including the characters of Heder and Shepard.
A release date has not been announced as the film is still in pre-production.
