Doubt as to whether the two will continue working together on The Whale, a movie about a baby orca, which becomes separated from its parents, started after news of their split emerged.

But according to the Los Angeles Times, a producer on the project is adamant the stars will both remain involved in the film despite their impending divorce.

“We have no reason to believe that their passion and commitment to this project will waver as a result of any changes in their personal lives,” the Daily Express quoted the producer as saying.

Johansson and Reynolds are both co-executives producers, while The Proposal actor also narrates the movie, which is set in British Columbia close to where the estranged couple exchanged vows in 2008.

The film is slated for a 2011 release.
