LONDON, July 15 (UPI) -- Production has begun in the United Kingdom on the big-screen adaptation of David Nicholls' popular novel "One Day," the film's producers said Thursday.

Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess star in the co-production, which is being made through the unique partnership of Random House Inc.'s Random House Films division and Focus Features. The U.K.'s Film4 is co-financing.

Nicholls has adapted his book into the screenplay for the film, which Focus said it plans to release theatrically in the third quarter of 2011.

Focus holds worldwide rights -- excluding U.K. free TV, to be held by Film4 -- to the movie version.

Filming is taking place on location in England, as well as in Scotland and France.

Hathaway and Sturgess are joined by a supporting cast that includes Romola Garai, Jamie Sives, Rafe Spall, Ken Stott and Jodie Whittaker.

"One Day" is being directed by Lone Scherfig, who most recently helmed the Best Picture Oscar nominee "An Education."
