Vanessa Paradis is back

Posted Aug 27, 2009

If we were married to Johnny Depp, we too would head off to a French chateau, content to wile away the hours with a bottle of wine. However the news is out that Vanessa is back with a new film. Swide finds out more...

Is Focus Features the most fashion forward film company out there? First it gets behind director (and fashion muse) Sofia Coppola's films and now continuing their love affair with the impossibly chic - they are behind a new French-language romantic comedy "Heartbreaker," co-starring Romain Duris and Vanessa Paradis.

"Heartbreaker" is Focus' latest romance in French, following Joann Sfar's Serge Gainsbourg biopic "Gainsbourg, je t'aime, moi non plus" which is in postproduction.

In "Heartbreaker," French megastar Duris plays a ladies man who is hired by family members to break up unsuitable love pairings, but struggles when he's asked to break up the perfect couple.

The film, directed by Pascal Chaumeil and written by screenwriting trio Laurent Zeitoun, Jeremy Doner and Yohan Gromb, began shooting in June in Monaco, Paris and Morocco and is set for a 2010 release in Gaul through Universal.
