In a twist of casting fate, Meg Ryan will play the mother of Colin Hanks. Yes, the real life son of Tom Hanks, Ryan’s “You’ve Got Mail” and “Sleepless in Seattle” soul mate.

Fittingly, the movie title is “My Mom’s New Boyfriend.” In the flick, Ryan begins dating an art thief, played by Antonio Banderas. Young Hanks, an FBI agent tracing Banderas, is forced to bug them and listen to their dates.

Also co-starring Selma Blair, the film should be released in February.

Blair is already a fan of the couture designer, and she may have been a natural choice. In January 2004, she married Ahmet Zappa, the son of Frank Zappa. Lagerfeld designed her wedding dress.

Blair said that she feels comfortable being photographed by Lagerfeld. ?With Karl, he’s capturing something that’s more – my personal flaws, the way I am as a girl, not a model,” she said, according to ananova.

Blair is known for her movie roles in Legally Blond, Cruel Intentions and The Sweetest Thing. Her newest project is Purple Violets, also starring Ed Burns and Debra Messing.

The couture ads starring the brunette will be displayed next year.
