UB Spotlight + Preview: Director + Cast Talk ‘You, Me & Tuscany’
In Theaters Everywhere this Friday!
“You, Me & Tuscany” hits theaters this Friday April 10th via Universal Pictures.
Sometimes the wrong place is right where you need to be.
From Will Packer, comes a delicious romantic comedy about one little lie, one large Italian villa, and two people getting lost in the sauce of love.
Halle Bailey stars as Anna, a young woman who has abandoned her dreams of becoming a chef and is now drifting through her twenties with a series of bad choices.
When Anna loses her house-sitting job (and housing) in one fell swoop, a chance encounter with Matteo—a handsome Italian who happens to have a villa sitting empty in Tuscany—will inspire her to jet off for Italy, against the advice of her always-honest bestie, Claire (Aziza Scott).
But Anna’s plan to crash at Matteo’s villa, without permission, just for one night, falls apart when Matteo’s mother, Gabriella (Isabella Ferrari) shows up at the house unexpectedly. In a panic, Anna allows Gabriella to believe that she is Matteo’s fiancée.
That little lie becomes a big problem, though, when Matteo’s cousin, Michael (Regé-Jean Page) shows up, and Anna discovers that the heat between them may ignite a fire that will transform her life.
The film’s international cast includes Lorenzo de Moor as Matteo, Marco Calvani as an Italian taxi driver who befriends Anna and Academy Award nominee Nia Vardalos as Anna’s house-sitting client, Mrs. Dunn.
“You, Me & Tuscany” is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kat Coiro, from a screenplay by Ryan Engle, based on an original idea by Ryan Engle and Kristin Engle.
The film is produced by Will Packer and Johanna Byer for Will Packer Productions. The executive producers are Ryan Engle and Kristin Engle.
