LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Ben Affleck and Kris Kristofferson are joining the all-star cast of the ensemble comedy "He's Just Not That Into You."
Already on board are Jennifer Aniston, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Connelly, Bradley Cooper, Kevin Connolly, Justin Long, Ginnifer Goodwin and Drew Barrymore, who is also producing.
The film's interconnecting story arcs deal with the challenges of reading or misreading human behavior.
Affleck will play Aniston's boyfriend, a man whose unwillingness to commit to marriage puts great strain on their relationship. Kristofferson will play Aniston's father.
Ken Kwapis ("License to Wed") is directing the New Line project.
Affleck most recently appeared in the ensemble action movie "Smokin' Aces." His feature directing debut "Gone Baby Gone," which he also co-wrote, opens in the fall. Singer/songwriter Kristofferson most recently appeared in "Fast Food Nation."
