BEIJING, Aug. 7 (Xinhuanet) -- Former "Friends" actress Jennifer Aniston has
signed to star with comedian Steve Zahn in the romantic comedy "Management" as a
traveling saleswoman, according to media reports Tuesday.
Aniston's character sells cheap generic art to
nondescript businesses and motels. Steve Zahn is set to play the slacker motel
manager she has a one-night stand with who ends up following her all over the
U.S.
Aniston's upcoming film projects also include the
prison-break thriller "Wanted," a thriller co-starring Meryl Streep about a
former cop who plots her escape from jail after being framed for selling drugs;
"Gambit," a heist comedy co-starring Ben Kingsley and Colin Firth, and "The
Senator's Wife."
Earlier this year, Aniston returned to prime-time for
the first time since "Friends" ended in 2004, to play a rival editor to
Courteney Cox's tabloid-dish diva on "FX's Dirt."
The 38-year-old Emmy winner will also
executive-produce, and possibly star in, the period musical "Goree Girls," a
true story about eight women locked up in a Texas penitentiary in the 1940s who
form one of the first-ever all-female country-western groups.
Steve Zahn can currently be seen in theaters
co-starring as an escaped POW in the nail-biter "Rescue Dawn" with Christian
Bale.
Up next for the 39-year-old character actor is the
comedy "Strange Wilderness," in theaters next January, about a few animal lovers
who head to the Andes in search of Bigfoot.
