When in Rome – Movie Trailer

Touchstone has just debuted the trailer for When in Rome, the new romantic comedy starring Kristen Bell. This also stars Josh Duhamel as her big love interest, and a bunch of other wanna-be lovers, like Danny DeVito, Will Arnett, Jon Heder, and Dax Shepard. Sure it looks funny and glossy, like every other romcom made these days, I just don’t really care. It’s always the same story told a different way, except for something like The Time Traveler’s Wife, where they throw in a sci-fi element. I’m already predicting that the fountain was a big sham and she’s really, truly in love with Duhamel’s character anyway.

Beth Harper (Kristen Bell) is a young, successful real estate agent… but she’s completely unlucky in love. However, when the New Yorker travels to Rome to see her newlywed sister, she impulsively steals some coins from a reputed fountain of love, and is then aggressively pursued by a band of wannabe lovers.

When in Rome is directed by Mark Steven Johnson, of Simon Birch, Daredevil, and Ghost Rider previously. The screenplay was co-written by writing partners David Diamond and David Weissman, of The Family Man, Evolution, and Minutemen previously. Disney will debut When in Rome in theaters on August 7th.
