Rashida Jones has landed the female lead in DreamWorks' comedy "I
Love You, Man," opposite Paul Rudd and Jason Segal. "The Office" regular
also will co-star in the Renée Zellweger-Harry Connick Jr. starrer "Chilled
in Miami" for Gold Circle Films.
John Hamburg directs "I Love
You" from a script he wrote about a man about to get married (Rudd)
who seeks out a stranger to be his best man for the wedding. Jones
will play the fiancée.
Shooting is scheduled to begin in early April.
"Chilled" centers
on a Miami business woman who is transferred to rural Minnesota,
and while she is there she re-evaluates her big-city values. Jones
will play the best friend to Zellweger's character.
Jones will star
on Fox's upcoming half-hour comedy "Unhitched," from the Farrelly
brothers. Her film credits include "Life in Flight," "Brief
Interviews With Hideous Men" and "Little Black Book."
