Singer Nick Jonas is set to star in an untitled rom-com from director Ari Sandel, reported Deadline. 

The film follows a perennial bachelor whose carefree life is upended when he unexpectedly inherits his cousin's infant child. Just as he gets a grip on life as a dad, complications arise when the child’s godmother appears around the holidays to claim custody of her. What ensues is a love story neither saw coming, reported Deadline. 


Best known for the teen comedy The DUFF, Ari Sandel most recently directed Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween for Sony. The film is penned by Tamara Chestna, a writer with credits like Something from Tiffany and Moxie under her belt.



Steve Barnett is producing for Monarch Media, alongside Mark Ross for Lincoln Road Films, Spencer Berman and Jonas for Powered by Jonas, and Chestna. Alan Powell and Vicky Patel are exec producing for Monarch.

Nick Jonas' upcoming movies

The singer has had a productive couple of months, premiering his musical dramedy Power Ballad to critical acclaim at SXSW and more recently signing on to star opposite Kathryn Newton in White Elephant.

Power Ballad stars Nick opposite Paul Rudd. Power Ballad is the latest film from Once‘s director John Carney, which will be released by Lionsgate on June 5.

 White Elephant is a new holiday horror film, and it marks MRC’s first film under a new horror-thriller partnership with Radio Silence and Project X, dubbed RSPX.

Later this year, he will also be seen starring alongside Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, and Kevin Hart in the thrid installment of Jumanji from Columbia Pictures. He is repped by UTA, Philymack, and Schreck Rose Dapello.
