Sarah Jessica Parker set to star in rom-com 'All Roads Lead to Rome'

Sarah Jessica Parker has signed on to play the lead in upcoming romantic comedy 'All Roads Lead to Rome.'

According to the Hollywood reporter, the AMBI Pictures and Paradox Studios project would be helmed by Ella Lemhagen from a screenplay by Cindy Meyers, Josh Appignanesi and Lemhagen, and the principal photography for the film would commence later in October in Rome.

The story would focus on Maggie, played by the 'Sex and the City' star and her former Italian lover, Luca, who embark on a road trip across Italy pursuing Maggie's rebellious teenage daughter, who desperately tries to return to New York while Luca's mother is on a secret mission of love.

The film would be financed by AMBI's Andrea Iervolino and Monika Bacardi and Paradox's Mikael Wiren, and Iervolino and Bacardi would also produce alongside Paradox's Silvio Muraglia, with Wiren as executive producer.

Iervolino said that Parker was extraordinary actress who could really connect with the audiences and hence was perfect for the film.
