Haley said "13 Going on 30" is one of the rare and perfect films. "Funny, emotional, deeply human, with unforgettable performances from Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo and Judy Greer. I’m a long-time fan, so stepping into this reimagining comes with tremendous responsibility. Jennifer Garner being on board as an executive producer, after playing such a big part of what made the original special, is especially meaningful," the director said in a statement.
"I also couldn’t be more excited to reunite with Emily Bader after 'People We Meet on Vacation'. She and the amazingly talented Logan Lerman are a magical pairing. I feel incredibly lucky to be trusted with something that means so much to so many people." It is produced by Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum under the banner RK Films.
