With plenty of jokes thrown into the mix, the Notting Hill star does a stellar job with a Cockney accent while an idyllic backdrop fills viewers with envy.

Aubrey Plaza, Cary Elwes and Bugzy Malone convince Josh Hartnett, who transforms into Danny Francesco, to travel the world with them on their expedition.

It follows reports that Jake Gyllenhaal is currently in negotiations with Miramax to star in a still untitled film that will be directed by Guy.

The Oscar-nominated actor, 40, currently has his name attached to no less than three new films, and he’s currently out promoting The Guilty, which received stellar reviews after premiering at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival.

So far there’s no official word on any plot details or other potential cast members, but the project will reportedly be in the vein of Ritchie’s ‘visual style that audiences have loved for years.’

The movie is slated to start shooting by the end of the year.
