Runaway Bride is a 1999 American screwball romantic comedy film directed by Garry Marshall, and starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. The screenplay, written by Sara Parriott and Josann McGibbon, is about a reporter (Gere) who undertakes to write a story about a woman (Roberts) who has left a string of fiancés at the altar.

The film marked the first re-teaming of Gere, Roberts, and Marshall following 1990's Pretty Woman. Though the film received generally negative reviews from critics, it was a commercial success, grossing $309 million worldwide.
