This exciting project centers on Darcy and Tom, who are getting cold feet about their upcoming destination wedding after gathering their families in the same spot. The whole situation gets even worse after they’re all taken hostage in the middle of their wedding party preparations.

Lionsgate will be in charge of producing the project, and their president of production, Erin Westerman, described Lopez and Hammer as the perfect pairing for this project because they’re “both incredibly funny actors that can also deliver on the action.”

Lopez is no stranger to wedding-themed movies, and her filmography includes rom-com classics The Wedding Planner and Monster-in-Law. She’s also set to star in the upcoming movie Marry Me, which centers on a pop star who ties the knot with a complete stranger after leaving her cheating boyfriend.

Armie Hammer and Lily James will star in the Netflix film which follows a newly married woman (James) who arrives at the English estate of her wealthy husband Maxim de Winter (Hammer). What starts as a romance, ends up with Rebecca being haunted by the ghost of Maxim’s dead first wife, whose legacy lives on in the sinister housekeeper Mrs. Danvers (Kristin Scott Thomas).

“She was the love of his life,” Mrs. Danvers tells the second Mrs. de Winter in the trailer. “I wonder what she would think of you — taking her husband, using her name.”

The cast also includes Keeley Hawes, Ann Dowd, Sam Riley, Tom Goodman-Hill, Mark Lewis Jones, John Hollingworth, and Bill Paterson.

Rebecca has been adapted many times for the stage and screen with Alfred Hitchcock’s 1940 Oscar-winning film starring Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine being the most notable. The film had 11 Academy Awards nominations, which was the most that year.

Rebecca is set to be released on Netflix on October 21. Watch the trailer below.

Nothing is official just yet, but Hammer seems like a good replacement for Affleck in upcoming superhero flick directed by Matt Reeves. This film is scheduled for 2021 release date and it will focus on a younger and less-experienced version of Batman.

Before reports of Hammer’s involvement started making the rounds online, a couple of other young Hollywood stars were linked with this project. Ansel Elgort, Dylan O’Brien, Logan Lerman,  Noah Centineo, Jack O’Connell, Richard Madden, Kit Harington, Nicholas Hoult and Aaron Taylor-Johnson were reportedly also in the talks.

Despite a couple of smudges on his resume, Armie Hammer managed to reinvent himself in the last couple of years with roles in critically acclaimed projects The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Call Me by Your Name and Sorry to Bother You. We’ll next see him in thriller Hotel Mumbai, also starring Dev Patel and Jason Isaacs.

Rebecca centers on a naive young woman, who’s swept off her feet by a charismatic widower she met in Monte Carlo. She quickly accepts his proposal, but once their honeymoon phase is over, it quickly becomes clear they won’t be getting their happily ever after.

The couple moves to husband’s imposing family estate on a bleak English coast, where it becomes obvious she’s not the only woman in his life. The legacy of his dead wife Rebecca is still haunting the house, and posing threat to their marriage.

The most memorable adaptation of Rebecca came out in 1940 and won the Oscar for Best Picture that year. Alfred Hitchcock served as director, while Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine played the lead roles, and both received an Oscar nomination for their performance. Long story short –  James and Hammer have some big shoes to fill.

Director Mimi Leder was head over heels after learning American Film Institute representatives picked her film. AFI alumni explained their decision is particularly meaningful because she was one of the first women ever admitted to the AFI Conservatory.

“My time at the Conservatory was a life-changing experience and informed my creative journey. I am forever grateful. I hope girls and young women, in particular, will see the film and find inspiration to realize their own unlimited potential,” said Leder.

President & CEO of American Film Institute Bob Gazzale explained they wanted to honor On the Basis of Sex because it brings two dual mandates together as one. It’s both a story essential to our times and a triumph for one of the first female directors at the AFI Conservatory.

On the Basis of Sex centers on the young Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who teams up with her husband Marty to bring a groundbreaking case before the US Supreme Court. It stars Felicity Jones and Armie Hammer, and it will hit the theaters just in time for Christmas.

The love story between Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer’s characters in Call Me by Your Name captured the hearts of both audiences and critics, being nominated for several awards and winning Best Adapted Screenplay at the 2018 Academy Awards.

A sequel to the Luca Guadagnino film was announced a few months ago, with the story expected to take place in the ‘90s amidst the HIV/AIDS crisis.

When asked about the status of the anticipated film, Armie said, “It will happen because there are already people working on it and trying to make it happen.”

“I miss the whole crew,” he added. “It was such a special time. It was such a collaborative, unique, and totally immersive filming experience that I never really had, nor since. If we get to do another one, I’ll feel really lucky. I want to do it again.”

So do we, Armie!
