LA, May 07: Jeremy Piven has been cast opposite Mandy Moore in an untitled Warner Bros. project about a wayward first daughter. The project is slated to go into production in mid-June with Andy Cadiff directing. It centers on the U.S. president's 18-year-old daughter, who gives the Secret Service the slip and runs away on a European road trip. Piven is set to play a key Secret Service agent.
Fox-based Regency Enterprises has a competing "First Daughter" project, which Katie Holmes recently signed on to star in. That project is due to start production in mid-May, with a Jan. 9 release date scheduled.
Piven, who is coming off his starring turn in the comedy "Old School," next stars in "Runaway Jury" for Fox and "Scary Movie 3" for Dimension Films.
