Owen Wilson, Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates and France's First Lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy will lead Woody Allen's next film, "Midnight In Paris." The movie will also star Michael Sheen, Nina Arianda, Tom Hiddleston, Corey Stoll, Mimi Kennedy and Kurt Fuller, according to Variety.

"Midnight in Paris" is a romantic comedy that follows a family travelling to the city for business, including a young engaged couple that has their lives transformed throughout the journey. "The film celebrates a young man's great love for Paris, and simultaneously explores the illusion people have that a life different from their own is better," the announcement said.

The film is scheduled to begin shooting in Paris in the Summer.
