Studio71 Teams With Ben Stiller’s Production Outfit On Romantic Comedy

Digital network Studio71 is teaming up with Ben Stiller’s production company, Red Hour Films, on a forthcoming romantic comedy feature called Plus One.

Starring Jack Quaid (Logan Lucky) and Maya Erskine (Casual), Plus One is about two longtime twentysomething friends who agree to be one another’s dates to get through a series of insufferable weddings, according to Deadline. The film is being directed by first-time feature helmers Andrew Rhymer and Jeff Chan, and also stars Finn Wittrock (American Horror Story) and Beck Bennett of Saturday Night Live fame.

Plus One isn’t the only feature film in the works at Studio71. The ProSiebenSat.1

-owned digital network is currently in post-production on Saving Zoe — an adaptation of the hit young adult novel by Alyson Noël  about a high school freshman who is determined to solve the mystery of her sister’s murder using diary entries left behind.

Plus One will be executive produced by Stiller, Nicholas Weinstock, and Jackie Cohn of Red Hour, as well as Studio71’s Dan Weinstein, Michael Schreiber, and Amee Dolleman.
