Reid Scott & Christina Scherer Work With "The Intern"

Reid Scott and Christina Scherer have joined the cast of the dramaedy "The Intern" says Deadline.


Nancy Meyers wrote the script and will direct the story which centers on the owner of a successful fashion website (Anne Hathaway) who bonds with the elderly intern (Robert De Niro) her company has hired.

Scott plays a fast-talking, overly confident businessman. Scherer will play an assistant.

Workaholics creator and star Anders Holm is playing Hathaway's love interest in the film. Pitch Perfect and fellow Workaholics actor Adam DeVine will play the head of the interns in the film.

Reese Witherspoon left the project over scheduling issues. Hathaway did a table read with De Niro and Meyers that went well.

Meyers is also producing the film, together with Scott Rudin and Suzanne Farwell.
No production schedule has been released yet.

The project was originally set up at Paramount Pictures with Tina Fey attached to star. Now it has become a fairly pricy $30 million dollar independently financed film
