Grey's Anatomy star Katherine Heigl is to play the lead role in a new romantic comedy about the battle of the sexes called 'The Ugly Truth'.

Variety says that the film tells the story of a TV show producer (Heigl) with a disastrous love life who finds herself mixed up in a series of over-the-top relationship tests thanks to a chauvinistic reporter.

But they both get more than they bargained for.

The film, which will be directed by 'Legally Blonde' director Robert Luketic, is due to start shooting in April.
