Steve Martin and Diane Keaton reunite for comedy

Steve Martin and Diane Keaton are to reunite for new comedy From Zero to Sixty.

Producer Robert Simonds, who has just finished filming Pink Panther 3 with Martin, will oversee the production for Paramount Pictures.

The pair will play a couple in the movie, according to Variety.

It is hoped that shooting will begin in the autumn if a writer can be found at short notice.

It was reported in March that Paramount had acquired comedy pitch One Big Happy as a vehicle for Keaton and Martin.

They previously co-starred in 1991’s Father of the Bride and its sequel.
