Cheryl Hines (“RV,” TV’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm”) has joined the cast of Lakeshore Entertainment and Sony Pictures romantic comedy “The Ugly Truth” says Variety.
The story centers on a romantically challenged morning show producer (Katherine Heigl) who is reluctantly embroiled by her chauvinistic correspondent (Gerard Butler) in a series of outrageous tests to prove his theories on relationships and help her find love.
Hines will play the morning show’s perfectly coiffed and self-possessed co-anchor.
“Legally Blone” director Robert Luketic and writers Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith are reteaming for this project, which is scheduled to start filming next month.
