The film, which Gervais is writing, directing, and producing with his longtime creative partner Stephen Merchant, is about three young men who work at an insurance company; Jones will play a character named Julie, who challenges those who believe that she should prioritize family over career. The Men at the Pru is set to start shooting this summer in the U.K.
