Why Netflix Broke Up With Nancy Meyers |
Dying to see what Nancy Meyers would do with $150 million of Netflix’s money? Unfortunately, none of us ever will. Natalie Jarvey writes that the streaming service is no longer making a planned romantic comedy with the director behind Something’s Gotta Give and The Parent Trap, after a disagreement over the film’s ballooning budget. The new movie, Jarvey writes, “was to be a star-studded, semi-autobiographical story about a filmmaking couple who reunite on a set after breaking up. (Meyers was married to writer-producer Charles Shyer for 19 years and made several of her most beloved films with him, including Father of the Bride and The Parent Trap.) Among the stars reportedly circling the project were Scarlett Johansson, Penélope Cruz, Michael Fassbender, and Owen Wilson.” |
