Leighton Meester joins Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg in "I Hate You Dad"

One of my favorite tv star Leighton Meester officially joins the cast of romantic comedy "I Hate You Dad". The movie tells about "a dad who moves in with his son on the eve of the son's wedding, and proceeds to immediately begin a feud with his future daughter-in-law." Adam Sandler is the dad, Andy Samberg is the son, while Meester will of course play the future wife/daughter-in-law. This film will be directed by Sean Anders and John Morris, and written by David Caspe, David Wain, and Ken Marino.

Besides the popular series "Gossip Girl", Meester has been involved in movie productions since last and earlier this year. Last year she appeared in thriller "The Roommate" where she became an obsessed best friend of Minka Kelly, and then a Golden Globe nominated movie "Country Strong" where she lent her voice to sing the movie soundtracks. She starred alongside Gwyneth Paltrow, Tim McGraw, and Garrett Hedlund in the latter.

As much as I love Meester in the Blair Waldorf persona (and clothes!), I am pleased to see her crawl trying to play different characters. We all know she has the talent, it's time for her to show it off! :D
