"Swingers" and "Made" co-stars Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau getting back together again in Universal's Couples Retreat.

According to Daily Variety, the frequent co-stars will join Jason Bateman (Hancock) and Faizon Love (Elf) in the comedy Couples Retreat. The film is based on a script by Favreau and will be directed by Peter Billingsley.

Vaughn actually hatched the idea for Couples Retreat, which focuses on four couples who go to an island resort to work on their marriages, some committed to the process, others just committed to a vacation. Hilarity ensues when it becomes clear that the resort's therapy isn't optional.

In addition to generating the premise, Vaughn's Wild West Picture Show will also produce along with Scott Stuber's Stuber Productions.

Couples Retreat could shoot as soon as late October in Bora Bora and Los Angeles.

Favreau will fit in his Couples acting stint before going back behind the camera for a second Iron Man feature.

Vaughn will be seen in this fall's Four Christmases.
