Rich D'Ovidio penned the script, which is based on an original story he wrote with Nicole D'Ovidio and Jon Bokencamp.
Bradley Gallo will co-produce for Troika Pictures alongside Jeff Graup, while Philip M Cohen and William Gallo will serve as executive producers.

Halle Berry wants to move to France so her daughter can grow up in a “quiet environment”.
The Hollywood actress has daughter Nahla, who is four later this month, with her ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry. The pair are embroiled in a bitter custody dispute and it was recently reported that Gabriel plans to contest Halle’s plans to move to France with her fiancé Olivier Martinez.
Halle has explained why she wants to relocate.
“I think about moving to Paris. I want Nahla to grow up in quiet environment, where she's not followed by paparazzi or stalkers,” she told German magazine In. “As opposed to the US, there are stricter laws in France which prevent such encroachments into my private life.”
Although Halle hasn’t decided whether she will be moving yet, she and Nahla are already getting prepared. They have been learning French, with the tot showing up her mother with her language skills.
“Nahla teaches me French. Every time I misspell a word she corrects me,” she laughed.
That isn’t the only cheeky habit Nahla has demonstrated. She also enjoys indulging in sweet treats, and always wants to share them with her mom.
“I have diabetes and a daughter who forces me to eat sweets. But I only have a bad conscience when I eat ice cream with her,” she explained.
Halle and Olivier are understood to have got engaged over the Christmas holidays, with Olivier recently confirming their engagement. He popped the question with an emerald ring he helped design.
Meanwhile, it has been reported that one of the reasons Gabriel is unsure about Halle’s moving plans is because he fears being pushed out of his daughter’s life.
RadarOnline claims the model is fearful that Halle wants Olivier to adopt Nahla if they move to France.

Gabriel Aubry fears that his former partner Halle Berry is 'scheming' to have their daughter adopted by her new fiancé, Olivier Martinez.

RadarOnline.com reports a source close to the Canadian model as saying: 'Gabriel fears that Halle's ultimate plan is to get him out of his daughter's life, permanently.'

'He believes the plan is for Halle to move to France with Nahla and then have Olivier adopt her as his own. She wants a 'fresh start' apparently.

Family unit: Halle Berry (seated) with Oliver Martinez and daughter Nahla in Mallorca, Spain - Nahla's father feels they are trying to cut him out of the equation

Doting father: Gabriel has fun with with his three-year-old daughter last week, he's concerned Berry is plotting to take her to France and have her adopted by Martinez

'It all makes sense now, the allegations of mistreatment and abuse, the slurs against Gabe in the press.

'The fight to strip him of custody, he believes it's all part of a bigger plan to make him appear like an unfit father and get rid of him for good.

'It's not happening though. Gabe will fight tooth and nail to retain custody of Nahla.

Close: Olivier has a strong bond with Nahla too, here they enjoy a Malibu beach together in January

Rapport: Martinez plays with Nahla and a friend, he appears to be a natural with the child

'He loves that little girl and is determined to always be a part of her life and always be her father.

'Just because Halle is through with him doesn't mean she can shut him out of her daughter's life too. Gabe may not have Halle's money or power but he will not just lie down and take it.'

The 45-year-old actress recently replaced her long serving lawyer, Neil Hersch, for legal heavyweight, Stephen Kolodny, to fight for permission to move her daughter - who turns four at the weekend - permanently to France, something Gabriel is vehemently against.

Abuse allegations against Aubry were dismissed, and Radar contend that has made it known that if he is hauled into court again over unfounded claims, he will sue Berry.

Their insider told them: 'It's been pretty nasty so far, but it's going to get a LOT nastier!'

'Gabriel is ready to fight and if Halle wants to fight dirty then as far as he is concerned she can bring it on. He will match her punch for punch, slur for slur. His relationship with his daughter is at stake and he will do ANYTHING to protect that.'

Engaged: Halle enjoyed a lunch with her fiance in West Hollywood last week, but she's hoping to start a new life in France

Halle Berry Engagement Ring Features Mystery Code


Following news of and Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez's engagement - something that has been suspected for weeks - details are now coming about the ring that the French actor has lavished upon the Academy Award winner. People Magazine reports that Robert Mazlo, Paris neighbour of Martinez, was commissioned to design the ring, and he told the magazine that at first he didn't realise he was creating an engagement ring, only finding out when his pal came calling and stating that he was "was very touched to be involved in [the couple's] story."

Talking of the ring itself, Mazlo described it as "a one-of-a-kind piece and cannot be replaced." The emerald ring has a yellow-gold setting which was hand forged and, instead of an inscription, the piece contains codes and symbols that only its wearer can understand, and Mazlo explained that its 4-carat emerald comes from old, "closed-down mines in Muzo, Colombia and the color is perfect," continuing "The balance between the blue and the yellow in the green in that stone is perfect."

Olivier Martinez confirms his engagement to Halle Berry

'Of course it's true'! Olivier Martinez confirms his engagement to Halle Berry

There had been rumours over the past few weeks that Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez had gotten engaged after she was seen wearing an emerald ring.

But now the French actor has confirmed that they are indeed planning to tie the knot.

Martinez was at the opening of his new restaurant Villa Azur in South Beach last night when he spoke of the happy news.

Happy couple: Olivier Martinez smiled broadly as he confirms he has gotten engaged to Halle Berry who has been sporting an emerald ring on her finger for several weeks

It's official: The couple's relationship has steadily grown over the past few months

'Yes, of course it's true,' the 46-year-old told The Miami Herald proudly.

But Martinez also wanted to dispel a report from a jeweller who had been bragging he had designed the ring for the bride-to-be.

'There is a jeweller taking credit for doing the ring and it's a lie,' he said. 'They have nothing to do with this.'

Going strong: The couple met while filming their movie Dark Tide in South Africa in 2010

The sparkler was actually designed by Robert Mazlo who is a Parisian jeweller based in Saint-Germain-de-Pres.

Martinez said he was a 'real artist' who made jeweller for 'kings and queens for many centuries.'

This will be Halle's third marriage after failed relationships with former baseball star David Justice and soul singer Eric Benét.

She has a three-year-old daughter, Nahla, with Canadian model Gabriel Aubry although the pair are currently embroiled in a bitter custody dispute. Olivier has grown very close to the little girl and they have often been seen playing together and being affectionate towards each other.

Meanwhile, Olivier has dated a long list of actresses and models including Mira Sorvino, Kylie Minogue and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

The pair met while filming their new movie Dark Tide in South Africa in 2010.

Halle's ex Gabriel Aubry has allegedly filed legal documents that might require her to pay through the nose for his lifestyle.

He is said to have asked for $15,000 - $20,000 a month so that he can provide a proper home for his little girl.

According to TMZ.com, he has also asked for a 'very large' clothing allowance amount for his daughter, as well as additional funds to take her to Canada to visit his family. The website reports that she is fighting Aubry on his request.

A hearing was originally scheduled for last week, but has been put off until April 9.

A dependency judge still has to decide whether or not some of Aubry's custody rights will be taken away.

Halle is said to be pushing to have the right to take Nahla to France where she wants to set up a home there with Olivier.

Yep, Halle Berry's beau Olivier Martinez is officially her fiance!
The French actor, who was in Miami's South Beach for the opening of his restaurant Villa Azur Saturday, confirmed his engagement to the actress, telling Miami.com, "Yes, of course it's true!"

But about those rumors revolving around the ring's designer? Not so much.
"There is a jeweler taking credit for doing the ring and it's a lie!," said Martinez. "They have nothing to do with this."

So who is the real designer behind the emerald-and-yellow-gold sparkler? Olivier revealed the ring's true designer is "real artist" Robert Mazio, a jeweler from his Saint-Germain-des-Prés neighborhood in Paris, whose family has been designing jewelry for "kings and queens for many centuries."
Congrats again to the happy couple!
