In May it was announced that Katherine was to star in the epic romance "The Age Of Adaline". The movie, which has since been re-titled as "Adaline", now has a director attached, with Andy Tennant set to helm the production which is expected to begin shooting early in 2011.

The story, which is based on a Mills Goodloe and Sal Paskowitz script, centers on a beautiful young woman, born at the turn of 20th century, who is rendered ageless after an accident. After years of living a solitary life, she meets a man for whom it might worth trying to regain her mortality.

Producers are Steve Golin and Alix Madigan of Anonymous Content, Sidney Kimmel, and Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi of Lakeshore. Katherine, her mother Nancy Heigl and Jim Tauber will serve as executive producers on "Adaline".
