Actress Keira Knightley is in talks to star in "Laggies", for which Anne Hathaway had been in negotiations.
Knightley, 28, is reportedly set to take on the lead role alongside Sam Rockwell and Chloe Moretz in the film, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"Laggies" follows a young woman, who is stuck in permanent adolescence. She reacts badly to her boyfriend's marriage proposal and tells him she is off on a business retreat, but instead hides out with her new friend, 16-year-old Annika.
"Laggies" has been written by Andrea Seigel and will be directed by "Your Sister's Sister" fame Lynn Shelton.
