Although I’m having trouble wrapping my head around the idea of Nicole Kidman in an Adam Sandler flick, it appears it’s going to happen, as she’s signed up for Just Go For It (previously known as Pretend Wife). Let’s just hope it’s better than when she teamed up with Will Ferrell for Bewitched.
However, from what THR is saying, it sounds like Kidman’s role (which isn’t known yet) will be more cameo than lead, so perhaps it won’t be too strange to have her and Sandler in the same movie.
Just Go For It sees Sandler recruiting Jennifer Aniston to pose as his soon-to-be-divorced wife and her kids, in order to land the girl of his dreams. Quite how having a fake soon-to-be-divorced wife would help anyone in love is a mystery, but presumably there’s a reason.
Also up for supporting roles are Sports Illustrated cover model Brooklyn Decker, and Dave Matthews. The film starts shooting, under the direction of Dennis Dugan, next month.
