Opening in theaters on July 24, 2009 is "The Ugly Truth," an adorable romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler. It’s about a chauvinistic reporter who gets involved with a romantically challenged morning show producer.

Robert Luketic is the director; he’s also directed "21," "Monster-in-Law," "Legally Blonde," and "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton." So he’s definitely got the romantic comedy chops to produce a great movie.

"The Ugly Truth" premiered in Hollywood on July 16, 2009. Watch the trailer here, and check out a few pics from the red carpet below!

Movie stars Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl shared a romantic kiss recently on their set of their new movie "Five Killers." Directed by Robert Luketic, the story follows a woman who meets her "perfect" man while on vacation. The two get married but quickly realize that their neighbors back home might be assassins hired to kill the happy couple. Tom Selleck, Martin Mull, and Catherine O’Hara also star in the movie, set for a June 4, 2010 release.

Oh, and don’t worry. Accompanying Heigl and Kutcher to the French Riviera set were their spouses, so I’m sure there were no offset shenanigans taking place. And if I was a body language expert, I’d say she’s way more into this kiss than he is.

Adorable Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler star in “The Ugly Truth,” a romantic comedy about a chauvinistic reporter who gets involved with a romantically challenged morning show producer. I like both of these actors, so I’m hoping they make some sparks onscreen (even though I can’t help but think of him as King Leonidas in the very non-romantic 300).

Directed by Robert Luketic, the movie snagged an R rating for sexual content and language, and hits theaters July 24, 2009. Check out the trailer and see what you think…

Katherine Heigl has wasted no time moving on with her movie career after deciding to leave ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy.” The blonde-haired, blue-eyed cutie (yes, I’m calling her a cutie) has signed to star opposite Ashton Kutcher in Lionsgate’s thriller "Five Killers."

Heigl will play a woman who meets the man of her dreams while on vacation. But everything goes haywire when the couple learn that their neighbors might be assassins hired to kill them.

Hmmm … should be interesting seeing these two in a scary movie. They both seem like the romantic-comedy type. But I guess maybe Heigl is trying to get away from the rom-coms she’s been doing in recent years (even though she’s perfect for them).

Robert Luketic, who helmed Heigl’s upcoming romantic comedy “The Ugly Truth,” will direct the movie, which is scheduled to begin production next month in Atlanta and the south of France (rough!).
