Josh Duhamel is in talks to star opposite Jennifer Lopez in the Lionsgate romantic adventure “Shotgun Wedding,” replacing Armie Hammer in the lead role.

A week after Armie Hammer’s exit from the Lionsgate romantic action comedy, Josh Duhamel has been chosen as his replacement. Duhamel, who appeared in the Michael Bay Transformers movies, is now in negotiations.

Shotgun Wedding follows Darcy (Lopez) and Tom who gather their lovable but very opinionated families for the ultimate destination wedding just as the couple begin to get cold feet. And if that wasn’t enough of a threat to the celebration, suddenly everyone’s lives are in danger when the entire party is taken hostage.

Jason Moore, who directed Pitch Perfect, is helming Shotgun Wedding, which has a script by New Girl creator Liz Meriwether and Mark Hammer.
