Anne Hathaway and Dave Bautista are set to star together in an upcoming action comedy that promises thrilling undercover exploits as they navigate a sting operation inspired by a true story.

AceShowbiz - Anne Hathaway and Dave Bautista are gearing up for an exciting new project: an untitled action comedy scripted by Jonathan Tropper for Amazon MGM Studios and AGBO.

The film draws inspiration from a real-life sting operation where agents posed as a couple to infiltrate global criminal enterprises, culminating in a dramatic staged wedding in New Jersey. At this event, crime bosses, unsuspecting as they checked in for their table assignments, were apprehended, ensuring subsequent suspects remained unaware.

The film's production boasts heavy hitters in the industry. It will be produced by AGBO principals Joe and Anthony Russo, known for their work on second season of "Citadel", Marvel movies, and other projects like "The Bluff". Additionally, Angela Russo-Otstot, Michael Disco, and Tropper himself will lend their expertise. Hathaway and Bautista are also onboard as producers through their respective banners, Somewhere Pictures and Dogbone Entertainment.

Tropper, already well-regarded for his work on "This Is Where I Leave You" and "The Adam Project", will shift this real-life tale into a mismatched partner story. The plot will follow two undercover FBI agents who must pretend to cohabitate despite their drastically different styles. Initially, these characters will clash, but as the case progresses, they grow to respect each other, culminating in a partnership viewers will root for.

In addition to this film, Tropper's impressive resume continues to expand. He is involved in various high-profile projects, including "The Corsair Code" with Chris Hemsworth, the "Lucky" TV series for Apple TV+, and collaboration with Shawn Levy on a "Star Wars" movie.

His work also includes scripting "The Wrecking Crew", another Amazon MGM action film starring Bautista and Jason Momoa, and the upcoming Apple TV+ series "Your Friends & Neighbors" with Jon Hamm set to debut in April.
