AceShowbiz - Contrary to earlier reports, Joe Jonas will not take a part in forthcoming romantic comedy "Valentine's Day". Setting the rumor straight was the middle of the Jonas Brothers himself. "I actually went for the audition and it was looking really good, but scheduling just wasn't working out," he opened up to Just Jared.
"They were filming in the summer and we [Jonas Brothers] were touring during the summer," the 20-year-old continued explaining. "We figured it out on our part but it was just difficult because they're working with so many superstars, that scheduling is really hard to adjust than a normal film like if it was just me and a few other people."
Although he acknowledged there is scheduling conflict, Joe didn't rule out possibility of him making a cameo completely. "It's Anne Hathaway and all these other big stars that star in that movie and they have to shift schedules around," he said. "I think we're going to try and do something for that, but it all depends on schedules."
Back in mid-August, Joe has been reported close to joining the star-studded cast of the romantic drama in which his former girlfriend Taylor Swift has been set to star. At the time, it wasn't clear what part he will tackle, but E! Online claimed the singer won't be playing himself.
Chronicling five slightly interconnecting stories occurring during one Valentine's Day in Los Angeles, "Valentine's Day" looks like another intertwining romantic comedy "Love Actually". The initial screenplay was written by Katherine Fugate with a rewrite by Abby Kohn and Marc Silverstein. This movie is directed by "The Princess Diaries" and "Georgia Rule" helmer Garry Marshall.
Bradley Cooper, Julia Roberts, Topher Grace, Jessica Alba, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Taylor Lautner and Emma Roberts are among the cast members. New Line Cinema will release the movie in theaters across the U.S. on February 12, 2010.
