Oscar-winning director Michel Hazanavicius is reuniting with his frequent collaborator and wife star Berenice Bejo for a new family comedy film "The Lost Prince".

The film will also feature "Intouchables" star Omar Sy and Franois Damiens, reported Dealine.

Hazanavicius and Bejo have earlier worked on films such as "OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies", Oscar-winning film "The Artist", "The Search" and "Redoubtable".

"The Lost Prince" will be produced by Philippe Rousselet and Jonathan Blumental while Pathe, Studiocanal and TF1 Films Production are co-producing it.

The story follows Djibi, a devoted single father whose life revolves around his beloved 7-year-old daughter Sofia. The devoted single father never misses their cherished ritual of bedtime stories. Every night as Sofia falls asleep, he takes her into "Storyland", a fantasy film studio where their extraordinary fairy tale adventures come to life with Djibi in the lead role as the heroic Prince Charming.

 

"I am so excited to work on this new movie. It is made to be a crowd pleaser for families worldwide to enjoy together. I want it to be funny, original and emotional and I am very happy that, for the first time in a long time, I will be able to take my whole family to the premiere!" Hazanavicius said.
