Jennifer Aniston is playing a reporter in her new rom-com “The Bounty Hunter,” opening this weekend. She said she took the role of Nicole Hurley in the film, which also stars Gerard Butler as her onscreen ex, because she felt it would give her the chance to try out a new challenge: action.

“It was the whole plot, the whole story that I was attracted to,” she told MTV News. “I love that she was a reporter. She was kind of an ambitious reporter and so much so that she would jump bail in order to get her story. [It has a] fun road-chase aspect. [It's] a fun action/comedy. It’s not a traditional romantic comedy.”

In the flick, Nicole finds herself in a traffic-related conundrum that leads to her getting in trouble with the police when she decides to skip her court date to meet up with one of her sources. When the bounty hunter comes looking for her, it happens to be her ex-husband, played by Butler. As you would imagine, flirty, crazy antics ensue. Butler said the pair had great chemistry.

“You know, that’s a hard one to explain. Who knows why? You either just have chemistry or you don’t. I’m like a fun-loving, energetic guy, and she’s boisterous,” he said on the red carpet at the film’s premiere. “She’s got a lovely personality, and there’s this action-packed, fun script. We’re always going to, I think, have a good chemistry.”

We were waiting to hear what some of Heidi’s co-stars would have to say about the ridiculous reality star being in a movie with them and we didn’t have long to wait.

Sadly it wasn’t quite the horrified and scathing response we’d been hoping for…

According to Access Hollywood, Jennifer called Heidi’s casting: “I just heard that. That’s interesting and fun.”

Reportedly, Jen also added that Heidi was “perfect” for the role but wouldn’t give any details away. We can’t imagine that the role will be too far removed from Heidi’s actual personality. That would be a challenge to far we think…

Heidi also spoke of her excitement of being in a film tweeting that filming was: “beyond what I could have ever dreamed.”

She also said; “I just had the best day of my life filming my first comedy movie!”

The actress is godmother to five-year-old Coco – her former ‘Friends’ co-star’s only child with husband David Arquette – and says she is a regular visitor at their house because she wants to spend as much time as she can with her.

She said: “Coco calls me Nuna. I see her almost every weekend and she’s really turning into such a lovely little girl. She’s sweet, funny, and creative and we just sit there in awe of her.”

As well as enjoying time with her goddaughter, Jennifer – who has been romantically linked with her ‘Bounty Hunter’ co-star Gerard Butler – says she is leading a very happy life.

She said: “I’m extremely happy. I have a very simple life. I have great friends and a happy and fulfilling career, I feel very lucky.”

Jennifer loves seeing her girlfriends and has regular nights out with them.

She said: “We always used to meet on a Tuesday and go for Mexican food – Taco Tuesdays, which were great fun.”

While nothing is officially in the works just yet for Jennifer Aniston to guest-star on her bff Courteney Cox’s TV show “Cougar Town,” it seems an Aniston appearance isn’t out of the question.

“[Aniston] is so busy, but I’m sure at some point she would do it,” Cox told us at the recent Paley Fest in Beverly Hills. “[She would play] something fantastic, something she would just have a blast doing.”

And although Cox has been happily married to David Arquette for 11 years, she does have some words of wisdom for ladies that wish to become ultimate cougars.

“Just be a confident woman,” she advised. “Feel okay about going out with someone younger and don’t be self conscious.”

And having hit the mid-forties mark last year, Cox is making the most of her life and looks.

“Being 40 is something fantastic. Now I have all the confidence I wish I would have had at 30,” she said. “I don’t have that many more good years!”

So while Cox claims she wasn’t as confident in her 30’s, perhaps she should have also mentioned she wasn’t too great with names either. During work on the hit sitcom “Friends,” Cox made an effort to thank one of the show’s writers Bill Lawrence (now the co-creator of “Cougar Town”) on his last day of work, but left a little red-faced.

“Courteney is the nicest person in the world and on [my] last day of working on ‘Friends’ she walked up to me and said, ‘I’m one of the first people to tell everybody that it’s about the writing first, and I just wanted to tell you that I enjoyed working with you, thank you so much for your hard work, Chris!’”
