The Honeymooner

Bradley Cooper is going to tell Robert DeNiro what to do.

No joke.

See, the American Sniper star is set to pop his cherry as a director by helming Honeymoon with Harry, a comedy that Dan Folgeman (Crazy, Stupid, Love) will be re-writing for him.

Cooper also will headline the movie, playing a reformed womanizer who changes his self-centered ways after he meets and falls for a new lady – a new lady who has a father that does not approve of the relationship (for he sees a lot of his old self in the new man in his daughter’s life).

DeNiro – Cooper’s co-star in films like Silver Linings Playbook and Limitless – will play the disapproving papa.

The title of the project, btw, comes from the fact that Cooper’s character loses his beloved right before their wedding and then runs into her father on her favorite beach, where they’ve both gone to mourn her.

So more of a dramedy then?
