Bateman, McAdams in Game Night
Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams will star in the New Line Comedy “Game Night”.
“Vacation” directing duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley will helm the movie with Bateman producing alongside James Garavente. Goldstein and Daley also wrote the latest draft of the screenplay.
“Game Night”, which has been in development at New Line since 2013 when Mark Perez wrote the original script, follows several couples who gather for their regularly-planned game night when something goes terribly wrong.
Bateman is currently in production on “Ozark”, his upcoming Netflix drama series. He was most recently seen in the DreamWorks and Paramount comedy “Office Christmas Party”.
The film marks McAdams' first true comedy since the 2005 smash hit “Wedding Crashers”. McAdams made her comic book debut in Marvel's “Doctor Strange” late last year following her Oscar-nominated turn in Open Road's “Spotlight”.
