Leslie Bibb joins the cast of About My Father

Leslie Bibb is set to star in Lionsgate's upcoming film, About My Father. The film will also star Robert De Niro and stand-up comic Sebastian Maniscalco. 

Directed by Laura Terruso, About My Father is inspired by Maniscalco's life and equation with his father. The comic will also write the screenplay for the film along with Austen Earl. 

While De Niro plays Salvo, an old-school Italian immigrant father, Bibb will essay the role of Ellie, the fiance of Maniscalco's character. 

Chris Weitz, Paul Weitz, and Andrew Miano from Depth of Field will produce the film, alongside Judi Marmel.
