The story revolves around a womanizing booze-hound (Cooper) who changes his ways when he falls in love. The girl’s father disapproves, and after the woman dies shortly before their wedding, the devastated groom sets off on their honeymoon to drink himself to death. He ends up running across the woman’s father who has ventured to spread his daughter’s ashes on her favorite beach.
Dan Fogelman will do an adapted script rewrite from an unpublished novel by Bart Baker re-write which will tailor the project to suit the sensibilities of both Cooper and his "Silver Linings Playbook" co-star Robert De Niro who is circling the part of the dad
Vince Vaughn and Jack Nicholson were linked to a previous version of the project which Paul Haggis was slated to direct. Jonathan Demme was also attached to direct this pic in 2011 before the project was shelved.
