Greg Kinnear is ready to tickle the ivories.
The Little Men actor is set to star in Piano Lessons, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
Todd Garner and John Shestack are producing the drama, which will be directed by Ken Kwapis. David Diamond and David Weissman penned the script, which also includes three strong female roles yet to be cast.
The film stars Kinnear as a lawyer who goes to great lengths to save his relationship. After 20 years of marriage, he aims to prove his love to his wife, a music lover, by taking piano lessons from a free-spirited female teacher to learn Robert Schumann’s “Traumerei,” a tricky piece that is also his wife’s favorite song.
Kinnear’s upcoming films also include Michael Karney’s drama Same Kind of Different as Me as well as his directorial debut The Philosophy of Phil. He is repped by WME.
