Will Ferrell to remake French romantic comedy

Will Ferrell, star of Anchorman, Elf and Stranger Than Fiction is set to remake the French romantic comedy 'I Do: How to get married and stay single'.

The Hollywood star is set to play the role of a 40's bachelor who, despite being happy with the single life, is bullied by his mother and seven sisters into getting married.

The film follows Ferrell's plans to try and worm his way out of a real marriage by planning to get a friend's sister to marry him but jilt him at the altar.

The rom-com remake isn't the only film that Farrell, who has just finished filming police comedy film The Other Guy has been linked with.

Rumours of an Anchorman 2 have surfaced again in recent months as well as possible plans for Farrell to work on a Sherlock Holmes style comedy.
