The latest title of that
The latest title of that currently filming not-really-a-sequel-to-The Graduate romantic comedy under director Rob Reiner is (drum roll...) Rumor Has It. (Not a bad title. It was previously called Otherwise Engaged, which I also like.) As soon as he was hired in mid-August to replace director Ted Griffin on the Jennifer Aniston-Kevin Costner-Mark Ruffalo film, Reiner brought in North co-writer Andrew Scheinman to do a page-one rewrite of Griffin's script. Scheinman, producer of several Reiner-directed films from The Sure Thing ('85) to Ghosts of Mississippi ('96), is apparently co-writing with his brother Danny, whose IMDB resume includes only acting jobs. Most of Griffin's script has been wiped off the hard drive. The new script still uses the basic premise (Aniston's relationship and/or impending marriage to Ruffalo is put on hold while she explores her identity and that of her grandmother, played by Shirley Maclaine, who was apparently the real-life model for the Mrs. Robinson character), but this is just being used as "a way in" to the new script and new sensibility, which is totally Reiner-Scheinman's.
