MY INTEREST IS PIQUED.
Rom-coms are really not my genre at all, but this actually sounds interesting, I think it will be interesting to see Jamie with an OCD XD

I would like to see him playing a normal guy. That's will be a real challenge for him.

What Poziomeczka says.
I can well picture him in that kind of role.
I hope the script is good.

And what you say, too. It doesn't sound really like a rom-com. Maybe that's a good thing...

What's more, because of The Eagle, now when I see a summary for a movie with either of those two guys, I always wonder how interesting it would be if Channing Tatum or Jamie Bell was playing the love interest.
I suppose there is a cure to it, but I don't feel like taking it!

Yes, a good script is a beginning. However, I notice the director is a first-time director, so that could be a risk. Jamie's movie Retreat was directed by a first-time director, and it turned out to be a disappointment.

Maybe Jamie wants to do a comedy for a change?

Me too. That's the fun part of it. I am glad they are both working actors, so there are many possibilities for AUs. But the most rewarding thing will be they reuniting for another movie. I hope it will happen soon.

A boxer? I can't see Jamie as a boxer at all for some reason. I wonder if he will bulk up for this role.

Boxing has different weight classes, so I guess he can play a lightweight boxer.

Jamie had this superserious sounding countdown yesterday and now some random fans are reporting he got married to ERW (not a big shock, they have been hinting about it for a long while now) I haven't seen the major gossip sites reporting on it yet. Heard anything official?

I think they were counting something related to North Carolina legislation regarding recognizing gay marriage or somthing like that.
