John Travolta and Tim Allen are in negotiations to star in "Wild Hogs," a comedy for Touchstone Pictures being produced by Tollin/Robbins Prods. Walt Becker is directing.

The script, by Brad Copeland, revolves around a group of four frustrated middle-aged biker wannabes who hit the open road in search of adventure only to encounter a real Hell's Angels group. Travolta and Allen will play two of the four suburban men.

Kristin Burr is overseeing for the studio.

Although he has taken on comedic roles, Travolta has become known more for his dramas and action movies. His comedic fare includes "Get Shorty" and its sequel, "Be Cool," as well as the "Look Who's Talking" movies. Travolta broke out into stardom playing Vinnie Barbarino in the 1970s comedy "Welcome Back, Kotter."

Allen is shooting "The Santa Clause 3" and stars in the upcoming remake "The Shaggy Dog," both for the Walt Disney Co. He also stars in Revolution's "The Return of Zoom," which he co-wrote. The superhero comedy is due in August.

Both actors are repped by WMA. Travolta also is repped by attorney Mike Ossi, while Allen is additionally repped by Messina Baker Entertainment and attorney Skip Brittenham.
