Tina is entering negotiations to star alongside Jason Bateman in This Is Where I Leave You, Warner Bros.’ adaptation of the book by Jonathan Tropper!

Shawn Levy is directing the movie and producing along with Paula Weinstein.

Tropper wrote the script, which centers on a man (Bateman) whose father dies and tasks his dysfunctional family comprised of four grown siblings with one last request: to spend seven days following the funeral together under the same roof for first time in a decade. If a deal comes together, Fey will play Bateman’s older sister, a woman who is married and whose first love now has brain damage.

The project, which is eyeing a production start in June in New York, also is casting other female roles: Bateman read actresses Ari Graynor, Isla Fisher, Zoe Saldana and Mary Elizabeth Winstead for the part of the romantic lead, but no decision has been made. Kathryn Hahn is looking likely to play Bateman’s sister-in-law.

Fey is expected to segue into the role after she wraps shooting a leading role in Disney’s The Muppets…Again!, the sequel to The Muppets, which is currently shooting in Europe.

Looks like Tina could be starring in another new film! From Deadline.com:

Jason Moore is in negotiations to direct The Nest, a Universal Pictures comedy that shapes up as an imminent post-30 Rock star vehicle for Tina Fey. The comedy’s based on an original idea by Paula Pell, who wrote the script. Fey is producing through her Little Stranger Inc banner.

In the comedy, two thirtysomething sisters come home to find their parents’ house has been put up for sale. They spend a last wild weekend together, bonding and feuding and finally growing up.

Tina spoke to E! News backstage at the SAG Awards about her ‘life after 30 Rock’:

The 30 Rock creator and star, speaking to reporters backstage at the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, where she won Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series, said she’s looking forward to “another generation of nerds finding” the acclaimed sitcom in reruns.

30 Rock is set to air its final episode on Thursday.

Fey’s got plans for Fey, too.

The actress said she’s set to begin filming a sequel to the 2011 Muppet reboot, The Muppets, in March in London.

In the summer, she said, she’ll reteam with Date Night spouse Steve Carell in the big-screen comedy, Mail-Order Groom.

Fey also talked of developing a new TV series, although it was unclear whether she intended to remain behind the scenes, or go back in front of the camera for that potential project. (Oh, and earlier tonight she seemed pretty optimistic about the Mean Girls musical!)

As for now, Fey is just happy. Looking at her Actor statuette, she said, “This was just a really lovely surprise.”

According to NME.com Tina is going to appear in a ‘The Muppets’ sequel along with Ray Liotta, Ricky Gervais and many more. The movie will be starting production this month in London and is set to be released in March 2014. We can’t wait!

A new trailer for Tina’s upcoming movie Admission has been released.

Warner Bros. has moved sci-fier “Pacific Rim” forward two months to May 10, 2013, vacating the July 12 date that year.

“Pacific Rim” will open against Sony’s “Mommy and Me,” starring Meryl Streep and Tina Fey.
