Four of Hollywood's hottest young stars -- MATTHEW PERRY, NEVE CAMPBELL, DYLAN McDERMOTT and OLIVER PLATT -- team up in the offbeat romantic comedy Three to Tango.

Oscar Novak (Perry) is an idealistic young architect on the rise. The boyishly handsome and funny Oscar and his partner, Peter Steinberg (Platt), have just landed a career-making opportunity -- Chicago tycoon Charles Newman (McDermott) has chosen them to compete for the design of a multi-million-dollar cultural center. In a ploy for publicity, Newman has pitched Oscar and Peter into a neck-and-neck competition with their archrivals and former colleagues, the hugely successful (and equally ruthless) Decker and Strauss (JOHN C. McGINLEY and BOB BALABAN).

Impressed with Oscar's feverish dedication to winning the job, Charles assigns him the additional task of spying on his mistress, Amy (Campbell) -- Charles guards her like he guards his investments. Oscar's bumbling attempts at surveillance fail, but he does develop a crush on Amy, a beautiful and headstrong artist, who begins to return his growing affection. Much to his chagrin, Oscar may have finally found the woman of his dreams.

But Oscar's dream is short-lived when he discovers that the jealous Charles has assigned him this special job only because he (mistakenly) believes that Oscar is gay. And Charles makes sure that Amy thinks so, too. In short order, Oscar's friends, his family, even strangers on the street believe that he is gay. The very heterosexual Oscar Novak has become the most famous gay man in Chicago.

When he is honored as Chicago's Gay Professional of the Year, Oscar has to make a decision -- will he continue the lie and hold on to the job of a lifetime and a frustrating friendship with the girl he loves, or is it time to face the consequences of coming out of the closet and telling the whole world that he is secretly...straight?
