TORONTO -- Parker Posey will find sexual bliss with Danny DeVito in romantic comedy "The OH in Ohio."

The feature directing bow of Billy Kent, "OH in Ohio" is the tale of a young woman married to her childhood sweetheart and blessed with a perfect life -- except that she's never had an orgasm. She leaves her husband and sets out on a climactic quest with an unlikely destination.

DeVito is in final negotiations for his role in the production, which is slated to begin in late October on locations in Cleveland and Los Angeles.

Pic is budgeted under $5 million and backed by equity investors.

Amy Salko Robertson, Miranda Bailey and Francey Grace produce the film, which was written by Adam Wierzbianski from a story by Kent and Sarah Bird.
