According to Variety, Jeremy Renner and Hannibal Buress are in talks with New Line Cinema to join the Ed Helms-headlined comedy Tag.
The film is based on a story from the Wall Street Journal which revolves around a group of friends who have been playing a no-holds-barred version of the children’s game Tag for the last 30 years. Jeff Tomsic (Idiotsitter) is directing from a script by Mark Steilen (Mozart in the Jungle) and Rob McKittrick (Mancrush).
Renner is currently reprising the role of Hawkeye in Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4, which are shooting back-to-back, while comedian Buress can next be seen in Baywatch and Spider-Man: Homecoming.
