Ashton Kutcher has begun final negotiations about starring in Paramount body-swap comedy Traded, according to Variety.

The movie will tell the story of a superstar NFL quarterback (Kutcher), who trades bodies with a 12-year-old middle school geek.

Shrek 2 and Daddy Day Camp duo David Stem and David Weiss will pen the script, while Coach Carter pair Brian Robbins and Mike Tollin will produce.
