'Friends' star Jennifer Aniston, Ben Kingsley and Mark Duplass have joined 'Convention', a science-themed comedy being directed by Justin Reardon. Duplass, who last seen in Oscar-nominated 'Zero Dark Thirty', will play the role of Paul, a mild-mannered inventor who, together with his feisty sister Abby (Aniston) sets out to change the world of box storage with a new, five-sided box. Kingsley will play Bobby Schroedinger, a maniacal box magnate determined to foil their plans. Reardon, who attracted attention with his commercials for Budweiser, just wrapped production on his first feature 'A Many Splintered Thing', which stars Chris Evans and Michelle Monaghan.
