Gurinder Chadha, director of 'Bend It Like Beckham', is set to helm a remake of Francis Veber's French-language comedy
The Closet for Miramax, says the Hollywood Reporter.
The project follows a bland accountant, on the verge of being fired, whose next-door neighbor devises a plan that may enable him to keep his job if he can successfully convince his boss that he is gay.
Miramax released the original movie in 2001, which starred Daniel Auteuil and Gerard Depardieu.
