The ‘Little Italy’ Trailer is Bringing Us Romance + Pizza

Little Italy

Little Italy is the latest movie announced in the summer of rom-coms, but this one includes a lot of pizza.

Little Italy

Emma Roberts and Hayden Christensen are a modern day Romeo and Juliet (except a lot less tragic) in the Little Italy trailer.

Little Italy

Roberts is Nikki Angioli, a native New Yorker, living abroad as a chef. It sounds pretty perfect until she has to go back home to have her visa changed in order to keep her dream job.

Once she is back home, she is reunited with her very nosy Italian family. Here is where it gets very star-crossed lover-like. Nikki’s family owns a pizzeria and has been in a rivalry with Leo Campo’s (Hayden Christensen) family’s pizza joint.

This makes it extremely difficult when they start to see each other. Nikki feels stuck, not only because of her family but because of the tough decision to chase her dream job or to stay in love with Leo.

Along with Emma Roberts and Hayden Christensen, Alyssa Milano, Danny Aiello, Jane Seymour, and Andrea Martin will star in the rom-com. Little Italy will show in theaters on August 24.
