Jennifer Aniston is on the prowl for younger men ... in an upcoming romantic comedy, that is.
According to
Variety, the actress, 40, has signed to headline
Pumas, which centers on two thirtysomething women who make a habit of romancing younger men. The ladies "take a French skiing vacation that challenges their romantic expectations," the trade reports. (Interestingly, Aniston's real-life BFF,
Courteney Cox, will play an older woman looking for a younger man in the fall ABC sitcom,
Cougar Town.)
