Henry Cavill to star in rom-com The Rosie Project

July 14, 2021 by Matt Rodgers

Henry Cavill really is something of a super man when it comes to the amount of projects he is lining up at the moment. He has just wrapped [deep breath] The Witcher Season 2 for Netflix, signed on to appear in the Enola Holmes sequel for the same streaming service, joined Guy Ritchie’s star-studded spy vehicle Argylle, and taken the mantle of The Highlander for Lionsgate’s reboot. Now Deadline are reporting that he is to switch gears for rom-com The Rosie Project.

The Rosie Project has been floating around Hollywood for a while. At one point it was a Jennifer Lawrence project that was to be directed by Richard Linklater, and then it morphed into a Ryan Reynolds vehicle, and now it has found its way to the in-tray of the former [?] Man of Steel.

Written and directed by first time helmer Steve Falk, The Rosie Project follows an unlucky-in-love university professor who creates an elaborate questionnaire in an effort to find a wife and meets an unconventional woman who doesn’t match any of his requirements, but might be the perfect woman for him.
