NEW YORK, April 23 (UPI) -- U.S. filmmaker Woody Allen said the romantic comedy he plans to shoot this summer in France will be called "Midnight in Paris."

The Oscar-winning "Annie Hall" director also confirmed Thursday "Paris" will star Owen Wilson, Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates and Carla Bruni.

Also in the cast are Michael Sheen, Nina Arianda, Tom Hiddleston, Corey Stoll, Mimi Kennedy and Kurt Fuller.

Allen traditionally keeps the casts, titles and plot details of his films under wraps until they are ready for release.

"Paris" is about a family traveling to the city for business.

"The party includes a young engaged couple that has their lives transformed throughout the journey. The film celebrates a young man's great love for Paris, and simultaneously explores the illusion people have that a life different from their own is better," the film's representatives said in a news release.
