Amazon MGM Studios is circling Sarah Pidgeon to join Kevin Costner and Jake Gyllenhaal in Honeymoon with Harry. The feature dramedy will be directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa from a script by Dan Fogelman. Ficarra, Requa and Fogelman previously collaborated on the acclaimed film Crazy, Stupid, Love as well as the Hulu series Paradise.

Based on Bart Baker’s then-unpublished novel, the story follows a grieving groom-to-be (Jake Gyllenhaal) who embarks on what would have been his honeymoon with his late fiancée’s father (Kevin Costner) after she dies just two days before their wedding.

The film's official logline as per the producers, reads, "A rough-around-the-edges man ends up sharing an unwanted journey with his fiancée’s prickly, overprotective father after a life-altering turn upends their plans. Against the backdrop of an island honeymoon, the two men clash and bicker before gradually uncovering an unexpected bond in this emotional dramedy."

The project has a storied development history. First set up at New Line Cinema back in 2004 by producer Mike Karz, Honeymoon with Harry was, at various points, envisioned with A-listers like Vince Vaughn, Jack Nicholson, Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro attached. Directors such as Paul Haggis, Jonathan Demme and Nick Cassavetes were also linked to earlier iterations, with writers Jenny Lumet and Fogelman penning different drafts over the years. Despite the false starts, Karz persisted, and when the rights lapsed, he steered the film to a new home at Amazon MGM.

Pidgeon recently starred in Ryan Murphy's FX series Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette as Carolyn Bessette. Some of her other credits are I Know What You Did Last Summer from Sony, David Siegel's The Friend, as well as playing Diana in Stereophonic on Broadway.
