Christina Hendricks & Olivia Munn Join Weinstein Co. Comedy

Sarah Jessica Parker, Pierce Brosnan, Kelsey Grammer and Seth Meyers co-star

A trio of TV personalities have been cast in The Weinstein Company's feature adaptation of Allison Pearson's novel "I Don't Know How She Does It."

"Mad Men" star Christina Hendricks, "SNL" joker Seth Meyers and "Attack of the Show" co-host Olivia Munn will join Sarah Jessica Parker, Pierce Brosnan and Kelsey Grammer in the romantic comedy, an individual familiar with the project has confirmed to TheWrap.

Parker stars as a high-powered finance type with two young children who's tasked with striking a delicate balance for all of the competing elements in her life.

While Meyers' role remains unclear, Hendricks is in final negotiations to play Parker's friend and Munn has been tapped to play a colleague of the "Sex and the City" actress.

Doug McGrath ("Infamous") is directing the movie, which is scheduled to start production in January.

Hendricks recently wrapped a supporting role opposite Ryan Gosling and Carey Muligan in Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive." The Emmy-nominated starlet previously appeared in the romantic comedy "Life as We Know It."

In addition to having a large following on Twitter, Munn has won additional fans with her segments on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show." She was last seen on the big screen in a brief role as news reporter Chess Roberts in "Iron Man 2."

Hendricks, Meyers and Munn's castings were first reported by the L.A. Times.
