Steve Carell and Keira Knightley are set to play unlikely roadtrip pals in the funnyman's first post-The Office film role.
The pair will play neighbours on a trip to meet Carell's childhood sweetheart in the hours before an asteroid wipes out the planet.
Carell's character makes contact with his ex-love after his wife leaves him in Seeking a Friend at the End of the World, and Brit Knightley agrees to accompany him on his romantic odyssey.
Carell will officially exit TV sitcom The Office after a seven-year run on 28 April (11).
Knightley's last movie Never Let Me Go received critical acclaim when it was released earlier this year - she is set to return to the big screen with Sam Worthington in Last Night.
She has also completed work on A Dangerous Method which is directed by David Cronenberg and will star Viggo Mortensen and Michael Fassbender.
