Meryl Streep and Tina Fey are to play mother and daughter in a comedy titled Mommy & Me, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Stanley Tucci, best known for starring in The Lovely Bones and Julie & Julia (in which he appeared opposite Streep), will take the director's chair. His behind-the-camera CV includes 2008's Blind Date and 1996's critically acclaimed Big Night.
The particulars of Mommy & Me's storyline are being kept under wraps, but the film is said to focus on the thorny and funny sides of mother-daughter relationships.
Besides starring in the sitcom 30 Rock, Fey has been nurturing a burgeoning film career, appearing opposite Steve Carell in the comedy Date Night earlier this year.
