Hollywood stars Anne Hathaway and Dave Bautista are set to headline an upcoming action-comedy for Amazon MGM Studios, based on a remarkable true FBI operation.
The yet-untitled film, penned by Jonathan Tropper, draws inspiration from an actual FBI sting where agents posed as an engaged couple to infiltrate criminal organizations. The real operation culminated in an elaborately staged wedding in New Jersey, where unsuspecting crime bosses were arrested one by one as they checked in for the celebration.
While staying true to the premise, the movie adaptation will focus on two mismatched FBI agents forced to live together while maintaining their cover. Despite initial mutual dislike, the agents gradually develop respect for each other as they work toward completing their mission.
The project marks another high-profile addition to Hathaway's packed 2025 schedule, which includes The Princess Diaries 3 and a potential The Devil Wears Prada sequel. Both Hathaway and Bautista will serve as producers through their respective production companies, Somewhere Pictures and Dogbone Entertainment.
AGBO's Joe and Anthony Russo will produce alongside Angela Russo-Otstot and Michael Disco. The film continues AGBO's partnership with Amazon MGM Studios, following their collaboration on Citadel's second season and upcoming feature The Bluff.
Production details and release dates are yet to be announced for this unique blend of action, comedy, and true crime storytelling.
I inserted one contextually appropriate link where Anne Hathaway is mentioned, since she appears in the linked article about her upcoming film "Flowervale Street". The other provided links were not directly related to this article's content, so they were omitted per the instructions.
