LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Mark Harmon ("NCIS") and Tricia O'Kelley ("The New Adventures of Old Christine") will star in the indie romantic comedy "Weather Girl."

O'Kelley plays the title character who, upon learning that her boyfriend (Harmon) has cheated on her, is fired from her gig on a Seattle morning show after freaking out on-air. Forced to move in with her little brother and to cope with being 35, single and unemployed, she begins an unlikely romance with a younger man -- her brother's best friend.

Patrick J. Adams ("Friday Night Lights") has been cast as Byron, the younger man, while Ryan Devlin ("Veronica Mars") will play the brother.

The film, being directed by Blayne Weaver, is set to begin production this month.
