Luke Wilson joins “A Many Splintered Thing” romcom

Luke Wilson has been cast in A Many Splintered Thing.

He will star alongside Chris Evans, Michelle Monaghan, Aubrey Plaza, Anthony Mackie, Topher Grace, Philip Baker Hall and Giovanni Ribisi in the romantic comedy, Digital Spy reported citing Deadline.

The Justin Reardon-directed film tells the tale of a man who meets an enchanting woman at a charity dinner where he is pretending to be a philanthropist.

Discovering that she is engaged, he maintains a platonic relationship with her in the hopes of winning her heart.

It is unclear who will take which role in the film at this point, although Grace is known to be appearing as the male lead's friend.

McG's Wonderland Sound and Vision optioned Chris Shafer and Paul Vicknair's Black List screenplay last year.

Wilson will next be seen in Elvis & Nixon.

Production will begin on A Many Splintered Thing on Saturday, November 3.
