According to the summary, the movie involves a woman who joins a dating show in hopes of seeing Paris, France, only to release it actually takes place in Paris, Texas. She tries to get away and makes every attempt to eliminate herself from the game, but as she develops feelings for the bachelor featured on the show, things get a little more complicated. 

The movie is set to star Miranda Cosgrove ("iCarly," the "Despicable Me" series) and Pierson Fode ("The Man from Toronto," "Out of Hand"). It's written by Nicole Henrich ("Vegas Bound," "Leto") and directed by Janeen Damian "Irish Wish," "Falling for Christmas").
