Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon to star in wedding comedy

Amazon Studios have acquired the rights to the new wedding comedy

Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon are to team up for a new wedding comedy.

Amazon Studios have landed the rights to the untitled project from writer-director Nick Stoller that has both Will and Reese attached to star.

Plot details are yet to be fully disclosed, but the premise involves two weddings that are booked at the same venue on the same weekend.

Ferrell is producing the movie with Jessica Elbaum via his Gloria Sanchez Productions banner and Witherspoon is producing with Lauren Neudstadter for her Hello Sunshine company. Stoller will produce with his Global Solutions partner Conor Welch.

The majority of the studios dropped out of the bidding early but competition among streaming services to land the movie was intense.
