Universal has nabbed the rights to Paul Bernbaum’s drama/comedy Counter Clockwise, which Jennifer Aniston will produce and possibly star in.
The script follows Harvard psychologist Ellen Langer, who is best known for her work on illusion control and aging theories. Counter’s story focuses on one particularly real-life study she conducted in which she reversed the aging process of subjects by convincing them they were younger.

There’s no director attached yet.
