Woody Harrelson, Owen Wilson cast in Lips Like Sugar

Actors Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson are set to headline the upcoming thriller film Lips Like Sugar. The film will be directed by Grammy winner Brantley Gutierrez.

With the script penned by Anthony Tambakis, the upcoming film is said to be loosely based on a true story which is set against the backdrop of the 1984 Olympic Games.

"As the new friendship of two teenage girls from different walks of life unfolds and city officials focus on the Olympics, the lives of two former detectives (Harrelson and Wilson) become intertwined when one of the girls goes missing," the official description reads.

Besides starring, Woody will also back the film along with Post Film's Russ Posternak, Freestyle Picture Company's Kevin Chinoy and Francesca Silvestri, 7 Deuce's Jeremy Plager, Greg Lauritano, Subtractive's Kyle Schember, and Zac Adams.

Lips Like Sugar is likely to begin production later this year.
