While Jennifer Aniston’s new movie ‘The Bounty Hunter,’ co-starring Gerard Butler, just opened this weekend, buzz is already rising around her next romantic comedy, ‘The Switch.’ Though the Miramax release won’t premiere for almost half-a-year, as it will hit theaters at the end of the summer rush in August, new details about the plot line are already surfacing on the internet.

PEOPLE.com reported on March 18 that ‘The Switch’ starts off similar to Aniston’s real life. Her character, 40-year-old Kassie, is single, but desperately wants a family. Without any candidates for a serious relationship, she decides to find a sperm donor before time runs out on her chances of having a baby.

Kassie chooses Patrick Wilson’s character as her donor Roland, but Jason Bateman’s character, Wally, her neurotic, hypochondriac best friend, tries to stop her from going forth with the plan. Wally secretly likes Kassie, and one day when he’s drunk he switches Roland’s sperm with his.

Wally loses touch with Kassie, but seven years later, he reconnects with her to get to know their son. However, Roland is still in the picture, as he fell in love with Kassie as well.
