Stiller Reteaming with Farrellys for Itch
Source: Variety April 26, 2006

Ben Stiller will reteam with There's Something About Mary directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly to topline Seven Day Itch, a loose remake of The Heartbreak Kid that is set up at DreamWorks.

Variety reports that Stiller is in final talks to star as a man who hastily weds a woman he thinks is perfect -- until he falls in love with another while on his honeymoon.

The project is a loosely inspired remake of the 1972 film written by Neil Simon and directed by Elaine May.

Bradley Thomas, the Farrellys' producing partner at their Conundrum Entertainment, is producing along with Radar Pictures' Ted Field. John Davis and Radar's Joe Rosenberg will take executive producer credits.

The Farrellys are also attached to direct a redo of the French comedy The Valet for DreamWorks.

I was never a big fan of the Farrelly bros.; they've had some good stuff but nothing that has blown me away. I think There's Something About Mary and Dumb & Dumber are the only two worth mentioning. Fever Pitch just plain sucked.
