Synopsis
From director Roger Michell (NOTTING HILL, VENUS), producer J J
Abrams (ALIAS, LOST, STAR TREK), and writer Aline Brosh McKenna (THE
DEVIL WEARS PRADA, 27 DRESSES), comes MORNING GLORY, a new romantic
comedy set in the hilarious and dysfunctional world of morning
television. Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton star
along with Patrick Wilson and Jeff Goldblum.
When hard-working TV producer Becky Fuller (McAdams) is fired from a
local news program, her career begins to look as bleak as her
hapless love life. Stumbling into a job at "Daybreak" (the
last-place national morning news show), Becky decides to revitalize
the show by bringing on legendary TV anchor Mike Pomeroy (Ford).
Unfortunately, Pomeroy refuses to cover morning show staples like
celebrity gossip, weather, fashion and crafts – let alone work
with his new co-host, Colleen Peck (Keaton), a former beauty queen
and well known morning show personality who is more than happy
covering morning "news."
As Mike and Colleen clash, first behind the scenes and then on the
air, Becky's blossoming love affair with fellow producer, Adam
Bennett (Wilson) begins to unravel – and soon Becky is struggling
to save her relationship, her reputation, her job and ultimately,
the show itself.
