Steve Martin and Diane Keaton Reunite for Happy

Steve Martin and Dian Keaton are set to star in One Big Happy, a film that will be a reunion for the actors. They starred together in Father of the Bride and its sequel. It’s no big surprise that Martin and Keaton haven’t been knocking out the ‘classics’ like they once did. So hopefully this will not only be a return for the actors to work together, but also a return to quality.

More details come from Variety:

In a preemptive buy in the high six-figures, Paramount Pictures has acquired “One Big Happy,” a comic pitch from “Party of Five” creators Chris Keyser and Amy Lippman to which Steve Martin and Diane Keaton are attached to star.

John Goldwyn and Lorne Michaels will produce.

Concept is being kept under wraps, but sources describe “One Big Happy” as a family comedy about a couple and a family reconnecting amid various obstacles. The material is a strong match for Martin and Keaton, who played a married couple in the Charles Shyer-directed “Father of the Bride” and its sequel.

I just hope this family doesn’t involve 12 kids.
