Anna Faris and Chris Evans will star in New Regency's R-rated comedy What's Your Number?, to be directed by Mark Mylod ("Entourage") starting in May.

The film is based on Karyn Bosnak's book "20 Times a Lady," which is described as follows:

How many men does it take to find true love?

Delilah Darling's magic number was supposed to be twenty. She always thought she'd find the perfect guy by the time she'd slept with twenty of them. But when she wakes up naked in her disgusting boss's bed after a drunken night out, she's filled with regret -- and realizes she's hit her self-imposed limit. Unwilling to up her number but unable to imagine a life of celibacy, Delilah does what any girl in her situation would do: she tracks down every man she's ever slept with in a last-ditch effort to make it work with one of them.

Bosnak originally adapted the book for the film. Her script has since been rewritten by Jennifer Crittenden and Gabrielle Allan.

Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson are producing and 20th Century Fox will distribute.

OMG, I can't breathe. I loved this book, it was so funny and so painful to read. I have been hoping this could be picked up as a film and now i am glad. I can't wait to hear who they want to play the 20 guys. I am going to have to read it again and see if i can come up with a list of actors who can play the parts.

This has truly made my day, now if hollywood would stop making stupid remakes of old classics and look around. There are many books that can make great movies.

Sounds kind of similar to the Brittany Murphy flick Little Black Book.
