LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "Scary Movie" heroine Anna Faris will star in a fish-out-of-water comedy she originated.
The as-yet-untitled project revolves around a naive centerfold model who loses her job and takes the only one she can find, that of a "house mother" at UCLA's lamest, dorkiest sorority.
Faris brought the idea for the character to screenwriters Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten "Kiwi" Smith, who developed it into a feature. The trio took the project to Adam Sandler's Happy Madison Prods., which set it up at Paramount Pictures.
Faris will serve as an executive producer, along with Lutz and Smith. The scribes' credits include "10 Things I Hate About You," "Legally Blonde" and "She's the Man."
Faris starred in all four "Scary Movie" films, which collectively grossed more than $680 million worldwide. Her other recent credits include "Brokeback Mountain," "Just Friends" and "My Super Ex-Girlfriend." She recently wrapped a starring turn in the indie feature "Smiley Face" as well as an appearance in "Mama's Boy" opposite Jon Heder and Diane Keaton.
