Anne Hathaway has signed on to star alongside Tobey Maguire in the upcoming Tokyo Suckerpunch, reports say. Based on the novel by Isaac Adamson, the movie is about comic book writer Billy Chaka (Maguire) whose real life turns into an adventure like the ones he writes. Along the way, a romance develops between the writer and his editor (Hathaway). The novel was adapted by screenwriter Ed Solomon, who wrote the scripts for Men In Black and Charlie’s Angels. “It’s a romantic comedy,” Solomon said of the project, “It’s got a lot of action, but it’s mostly a comedy set in Tokyo, about a guy who thinks he’s in love with one woman.” Gary Ross, who directed the Spider-Man star in Pleasantville and Seabiscuit, is attached to helm the project. No start date has been given.
