Signs are posted this morning on E 18th Street between Ditmas Avenue and Dorchester Road for [The Intern](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2361509/?ref=bklyner.com), a comedy directed by [Nancy Meyers](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0583600/?ref=bklyner.com) ([Father of the Bride](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101862/?ref=bklyner.com), [It’s Complicated](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1230414/?ref=bklyner.com)) and starring [Robert De Niro](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000134/?ref=bklyner.com) and [Anne Hathaway](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004266/?ref=bklyner.com).

According to IMDb, The Intern centers around “The owner of a successful fashion website bonds with the elderly intern her company’s hired.” Deadline elaborates, “As \[aforementioned fashion site founder’s\] company begins to thrive, she’s told that her company is importing seniors to be interns as a community outreach effort, and she’s getting one. While her first question is whether they are seniors in high school or college, she learns to her horror that she’s getting a real *senior*, as in senior citizen. The title character, an over-70 widower who is bored with retirement from a middle management career, initially seems like a fossil to his working mother boss, but grows more indispensable. While the boss and internship develop a platonic bond, Meyers tells me that to her this is a love story about the friendship they develop.”

The film was [originally slated to star Tina Fey](http://www.deadline.com/2012/04/paramount-lands-the-intern-a-nancy-meyers-comedy-with-tina-fey-starring/?ref=bklyner.com) and [then Reese Witherspoon](http://variety.com/2014/film/news/reese-witherspoon-nancy-meyers-the-intern-1201059545/?ref=bklyner.com). Now that Anne Hathaway has reportedly accepted the role, [The Hollywood Reporter](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/workaholics-creator-star-joins-anne-711365?ref=bklyner.com) says [Anders Holm](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2981082/bio?ref=bklyner.com) ([Workaholics](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1610527/?ref=bklyner.com), [The Mindy Project](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2211129/?ref=bklyner.com)) will play her love interest.

The movie [is also filming this week in Park Slope](http://parkslopestoop.com/blog/transportation/robert-de-niro-film-the-intern-takes-over-7th-avenue-starting-today?ref=bklyner.com).
