(FROM HOLLYWOOD REPORTER) – Will Arnett has joined Josh Duhamel, Jon Heder, and Kristen Bell in the romantic comedy When in Rome, which Mark Steven Johnson (Ghost Rider, Simon Birch) is directing from a screenplay he co-wrote for Disney. The movie, which also features Anjeica Huston and Dax Shepard, is about a successful, single New York real estate agent (Bell) who flies to Rome for her sister's wedding and, after picking up magical coins from the Trevi Fountain, is barraged by male suitors when she gets back home. Arnett will play an Italian artist suitor who follows Bell's character home from Rome. Heder plays a street magician who courts Bell, while Shepard plays a self-absorbed suitor also chasing after her. Arnett is currently in theaters as the voice of Vlad in the animated Horton Hears a Who!. He recently finished work on G Force for Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer. (Hollywood Reporter)
