John Travolta and Katherine Heigl join forces for the new romantic comedy “That’s Amore!”. Directed by him Nick Vallelonga and with Academy Award-winning actor Christopher Walken in talks to join the cast, Palisades Park Pictures made the film’s announcement shortly before its international release at the Cannes Film Festival.

According to the synopsis it’s the story “of Nick Venere, played by John Travolta, who is never married and has never heard the phrase ‘I love you.’ And Patty Amore (Heigl), who is described as shy and introverted, with many tics. She is also alone because of a secret from her past and her overprotective father.

When these two emotionally damaged people meet and try to date, their families will be mixed up and the results will be hilarious.” As reported by “Variety”, production is expected to begin in August.
