The movie is a dramatic comedy about a group of sex addicts, one of which is Paltrow’s character, determined to start healthy relationships despite their raunchy habit.

Stuart Blumberg, who worked on the touching and hilarious film “The Kids Are All Right,” is directing, and Mark Ruffalo, Tim Robbins and Joely Richardson are costarring. 

“It has a similar comedic tone to ‘The Kids Are All Right’ in that it has that heart, the sweetness and that humanity, which I think for films of this size, it’s so important,” producer Jordan Horowitz told E! Online.

Paltrow’s latest film “Contagion,” starring Matt Damon, hits theaters Friday. She is also expected to return as Robert Downey Jr.’s love interest in “Iron Man 3.”
