Jennifer Garner and Nick Nolte are in talks to join Russell Brand in the Arthur remake, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The pair would join Helen Mirren and Greta Gerwig in the comedy, based on the 1981 Dudley Moore film. which is about a wealthy drunk (Brand) who must marry a rich girl of his mother's choosing or else lose his inheritance.

Garner is being eyed for the role of the heiress that Brand's character must wed, while Nolte will play her father.

Modern Family's Jason Winer is directing Arthur for Warner Bros.
