Irresponsible charmer Arthur Bach (Russell Brand) has always relied on two things to get by: his limitless fortune and the good sense of his lifelong nanny, Hobson (Academy Award winner Helen Mirren), to keep him out of trouble. Now Arthur faces his biggest challenge choosing between an arranged marriage that will ensure his lavish lifestyle or an uncertain future with the one thing money cant buy, Naomi (Greta Gerwig), the only woman he has ever loved. With Naomis inspiration and some unconventional help from Hobson, Arthur will take the most expensive risk of his life and finally learn what it means to become a man, in this re-imagining of the classic romantic comedy.

Arthur is directed by Jason Winer, a 2010 Directors Guild Award winner for the hit ABC comedy Modern Family. The film also stars Luis Guzman as Bitterman, Arthurs straight-talking driver; Jennifer Garner as Susan, Arthurs appointed bride and keeper of the family fortune, and Nick Nolte as his imposing future father-in-law, Burt.

Winer will direct from a screenplay by Peter Baynham, story by Steve Gordon. Larry Brezner, Kevin McCormick, Chris Bender and Michael Tadross will produce, with J.C. Spink, Scott Kroopf, Russell Brand and Nik Linnen serving as executive producers. The creative behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Uta Briesewitz (Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, HBOs The Wire), production designer Sarah Knowles (Dan in Real Life), editor Brent White (Knocked Up) and costume designer Juliet Polcsa (Brooklyns Finest). The music is composed by Theodore Shapiro (Marley & Me).

Arthur is a Warner Bros. Pictures presentation of a Kevin McCormick / MBST Entertainment /Benderspink Production, and will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
