Winona Ryder Joins Ron Howard's 'Cheaters' aka 'Your Cheating Heart'

Winona Ryder has joined the cast of Ron Howard’s infidelity comedy “Cheaters.”

Previously reported under the title “Your Cheating Heart,” but referred to by Deadline Hollywood as “Cheaters” (though it’s hard to tell if its just their shorthand in getting the story up or a legitimate title change) the film centers on a man who finds out his best friend’s wife is cheating, only to struggle with what to do with the knowledge. Vince Vaughn is set to play the man struggling the knowledge, while Ryder will play the cheating wife married to Kevin James. The film is based off an idea by Brian Grazer, produced by Vaughn and Imagine Entertainment and has been adapted into a script by Allan Loeb (“Wall Street 2,” “The Baster”).

While it was previously reported that this wouldn’t go in front of cameras until next year, the film is now being prepped for a spring shoot in Chicago.

Note: EW’s Insider says Ryder beat out Kate Beckinsale, Carla Gugino and Uma Thurman for the role. Filming will begin its Chicago production in May.
