Tina Fey may have finished up with “30 Rock” but that doesn’t mean she is necessarily slowing down. The actress is currently in negotiations with Jason Bateman to star in the upcoming big screen adaptation of This Is Where I Leave You, a Warner Bros.’ adaptation of the book by Jonathan Tropper.

The author of the novel, Tropper, wrote the film script as well. The official description of the novel is below:

The death of Judd Foxman’s father marks the first time that the entire Foxman family-including Judd’s mother, brothers, and sister-have been together in years. Conspicuously absent: Judd’s wife, Jen, whose fourteen-month affair with Judd’s radio-shock-jock boss has recently become painfully public.

Simultaneously mourning the death of his father and the demise of his marriage, Judd joins the rest of the Foxmans as they reluctantly submit to their patriarch’s dying request: to spend the seven days following the funeral together. In the same house. Like a family.

As the week quickly spins out of control, longstanding grudges resurface, secrets are revealed, and old passions reawakened. For Judd, it’s a weeklong attempt to make sense of the mess his life has become while trying in vain not to get sucked into the regressive battles of his madly dysfunctional family. All of which would be hard enough without the bomb Jen dropped the day Judd’s father died: She’s pregnant.

Fey, if the negotiations go through, will play Bateman’s older sister, a woman who is married whose first love has brain damage.

The project, which is eyeing a production start in June in New York, also is casting other female roles: Bateman read actresses Ari Graynor, Isla Fisher, Zoe Saldana and Mary Elizabeth Winstead for the part of the romantic lead, but no decision has been made. Kathryn Hahn is looking likely to play Bateman’s sister-in-law.

The film is being directed by Shawn Levy who will also be producing along with Paula Weinstein.
