Just Words

Hugh Grant (pictured) and Ziyi Zhang are set to team up for the comedy "Lost for Words" reports Variety.

Grant plays a British film star approached to headline a movie by a female Chinese filmmaker.

He's soon finds himself taken with the helmer's flirtatious translator, but soon sees the object of his true affection as the director (Zhang) herself. Unfortunately, his translator is the only person who can communicate his feelings, and she has her own motives.

Jamie Curtis and Dan Mazer wrote the script, Susanne Bier will direct.

Gee, that's new and different for Grant-doing a romantic comedy...Still it's a solid premise...

Production is set to begin in September.
