Catherine Keener, Jennifer Aniston, Frances McDormand and Joan Cusack are negotiating to become best friends for Lovely & Amazing helmer Nicole Holofcener in Friends With Money. The film revolves around four best friends and their relationships with one another and their husbands. Only one (Aniston) is not married.Holofcener, who will write and direct the project, is joining with This Is That partners Anthony Bregman, Anne Carey and Ted Hope, who will produce. Bregman nd Hope were among the producers of Holofcener's last film Lovely & Amazing. This Is That is currently in discussions with Sony Pictures Classics to release the project.
It will also reteam her with her muse Keener, who was nominated for best female lead in Lovely at the 2003 Independent Spirit Awards.
