Cameron Diaz may not be married, but she is on board for the film based on the pregnancy guidebook series by Heidi Murkoff, What to Expect When You’re Expecting. It has been on the New York Times best-seller list numerous times.

It will be a series of connecting stories of five couples who go through the joys and troubles of the childbirth process.  It is said that it will be similar to Love Actually and Valentine’s Day. Diaz will play a host of a weight-lost fitness show who most likely gets pregnant and we follow her story as well as the other couples.

It will be a comedy-drama by Lionsgate and Phoenix Pictures. Kirk Jones who did Nanny McPhee will direct based on a script by Shauna Cross, and Heather Hach.

There has not been any more cast members announced yet, but it is expected to release sometime next year. Diaz was last seen in The Green Hornet, and is already creating buzz around her role in Bad Teacher.
