Deadline reports that both Bradley Cooper (in theatres now on screen in AMERICAN SNIPER and on Broadway in THE ELEPHANT MAN) and Robert De Niro are circling the highly anticipated film adaptation of the 2012 best-seller, HONEYMOON WITH HARRY. They write that " After nearly a decade of trying and failing to get to the altar on HONEYMOON With Harry, New Line has hired Crazy, Stupid, Love scribe Dan Fogelman to redraft THE COMEDY as a star vehicle for American Sniper's Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro. No deal with those two yet, but they are keen to work together again and this is a project they are both sweet on." The two previously appeared on film together in both LIMITLESS and SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK.

A 2012 best-seller by Bart Baker, the book tells the story of "The emotional and hilarious story of hard-living Todd Cartwright who falls in love with TAMMY Everett, a woman who literally saves Todd from himself. But Tammy's suspicious, overly-protective father, Harry, does everything he can to crush the relationship. Todd is not about to give up the greatest thing that's ever happened to him and goes to war with Harry. But when the UNTHINKABLE happens, the men dive into a physical and emotionally tailspin that threatens to consume them both. Todd decides to go on the HONEYMOON alone and return to his destructive ways only to find Harry at the airport with Tami's ashes which Harry intends to spread on the island. Reluctantly, these two wounded souls go on the HONEYMOON - both for very different reasons - where the enormous anguish consuming them causes them to react in very diffferent and unexpected ways. Though these two men hate each other, each is the only person who can understand the loss that the other has suffered. Todd and Harry are forced to recognize that they have one thing in common: they loved the same women. And that bond causes them both to begrudgingly help the other overcome the gaping loss that has swallowed them and move on with their lives."
