Heather Graham Joins Rachael Leigh Cook and Damon Wayans Jr. in Netflix Original LOVE, GUARANTEED
Just last week, we reported that Heather Graham (Boogie Nights, The Hangover, Law and Order True Crime) had jumped on board the upcoming limited series The Stand, based on the Stephen King novel. Graham has now been cast in the Netflix original film Love, Guaranteed. She joins the cast that already includes Rachael Leigh Cook (She’s All That) and Damon Wayans Jr. (Happy Endings). Cook is producing the film and helped inspire the story that was written by Elizabeth Hackett and Hilary Galanoy.
Here’s the synopsis, and character description, courtesy of Deadline:
It follows Susan (Cook), an earnest attorney who has taken one too many pro bono cases. She begrudgingly takes a high-paying, high-profile case from Nick (Wayans Jr.), a charming new client who wants to sue a dating website that guarantees users will find love. Susan and Nick soon find themselves in the middle of a media storm, and as the case heats up, so do their feelings for each other — which could jeopardize everything.
Graham’s character is Tamara Taylor, the CEO of the Love Guaranteed dating website. Tamara is a ruthless businesswoman who built a lifestyle brand from the ground up and will crush anyone or anything that gets in her way.
Like I said before, this sounds a little too Hallmark cheesy to me. But I know I’m in a minority of white women who don’t like this type of movie, so I’m sure it will do great. And I do enjoy Wayans Jr.’s comedy style, so I’m sure that will bring something to the film. What do you think? Is this one you’ll want to tune in for?
