Oscar winner Morgan Freeman celebrated his 72nd birthday earlier this year, but he shows no signs of slowing down. The actor just signed on to an untitled film comedy, previously known as Dirty Old Men. The story revolves around an aging playboy who finally meets the love of his life, while his best friend and wingman of 40 years -- played by Freeman -- does everything to break up the new couple. The tone of the film is described as being similar to Wedding Crashers and The 40-Year-Old Virgin, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Though no star has been attached to play the main character, producers are hoping to snag Jack Nicholson, who teamed with Freeman to great success in the 2007 comedy The Bucket List.

Freeman will be seen next in Invictus, in which he portrays Nelson Mandela for director Clint Eastwood. He begins shooting the action thriller Red in January.
