“That’s Amore!” indeed.
John Travolta, 69, and Katherine Heigl, 44, apparently have enough chemistry to fog up the massive screen.
Nick Vallelonga, the director of the duo’s upcoming musical romantic comedy “That’s Amore!” boasted in regards to the actors’ rapport Wednesday in an interview with Variety.
“John and Katherine are incredible together, and through rehearsals, that they had a lot chemistry,” Vallelonga, 64, told the outlet.
“We’re not breaking into big production numbers, but I desired to try something somewhat different,” he contined. “We’ve recorded about seven songs thus far with a full orchestra, and [Travolta is] only a magical person.”
The Post has contacted reps for Travolta and Heigl for comment.
Vallelonga added that he at all times had Travolta in mind to play Nick within the film, a never-married man whose world changes when he meets Patty (Heigl).
“I started working with John on a George Gallo film [The Poison Rose] and I used to be his stand-in for every week on ‘Staying Alive,’ so I’ve at all times been an enormous fan of his work,” Vallelonga explained. “He just makes you completely happy once you see him on screen, and I’ve at all times dreamed of creating this movie with him.”
Christopher Walken, Talia Shire, William Fichtner, D.B. Sweeney and Drea de Mateo all round of the solid.
The film has yet to receive a release date.
Heigl has been married to singer Josh Kelley since 2007. The pair share three kids: daughters Naleigh, 13, and Adalaide, 11, and son Joshua, 6.
Travolta was married to “Mischief” star Kelly Preston from 1991 until she sadly died from breast cancer in 2020.
Additionally they had three children: Ella, 23, and Benjamin, 12, and Jett, who died from a seizure in 2009 on the age of 16.
