Aniston: Has Role, Will Travel

Jennifer Aniston has made Traveling plans.

The actress will star opposite Aaron Eckhart in the upcoming drama, playing a floral designer who works in Seattle hotel where a charming lifestyle coach (Eckhart) is conducting a weekend seminar on grief management, per Variety.

As the twosome gets to know each other better, Aniston's character forces the self-help guru to recognize that he doesn't practice any of the principles he preaches.

Shooting on the film is slated to start early next year.

Aniston had been scheduled to start shooting the canine comedy Marley & Me opposite Owen Wilson, but production on that film has been pushed back at least until spring, following Wilson's recent suicide attempt and subsequent hospitalization.

The former Friends star is currently filming a role in the ensemble comedy, She's Just Not That Into You. Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Connelly, Kevin Connolly, Bradley Cooper, Justin Long, Ginnifer Goodwin and Scartlett Johansson also star in the film, which Barrymore is producing through her Flower Films shingle.

Once Aniston completes work on that film, she's slated to begin production on the comedy Management, opposite Steve Zahn.

Up ahead, the thesp will executive produce and potentially star in the musical Goree Girls, about a group of singing inmates at a Texas penitentiary who formed one of the first all-female country-western groups back in the 1940s.

Aniston was last seen on the big screen in 2006's The Break-Up, opposite her former real-life flame Vince Vaughn.
