The film, described as a romantic comedy, will follow a married American couple who attend the San Sebastian film festival only to fall in love with different people.
"She has an affair with a brilliant director of French cinema and he falls in love with a beautiful Spanish woman living in the city. A romantic comedy that is solved in a funny way," the studio said.
The project will mark the fourth collaboration between the studio and the filmmaker after Midnight in Paris, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger and Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
Jaume Roures of Mediapro said, "This latest movie has all the ingredients to be right up there along with what we've become accustomed to Allen's talent: an intelligent script and a first-rate international cast."
Allen's long-delayed Rainy Day in New York is set to premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September.
