Want to know how to get me really interested in a female-centric comedy? Tell me it'll star Cameron Diaz and Kristen Wiig, two of the best comedic talents working today, regardless of gender. Want to know how to immediately send me running away in terror from that same project? Describe it as being "in the vein of The First Wives Club". Yep, I'll seeya later.
The Wrap reports that Diaz will star in The Other Woman, a female revenge comedy about a woman who realizes she's a married man's mistress, and then teams up with his wife to get a little payback. Kristen Wiig is reportedly "in consideration" for the other lead, although that doesn't necessarily mean she's interested. The script comes from Black List-approved scribe Melissa Stack.
This one's pretty early on as a director is still being sought, so mark this as a film to keep watch on for next year.
