Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Jillian Bell, Ilana Glazer and Zoe Kravitz will be joined in the R-rated comedy Rock that Body by Demi Moore. This will be her first major theatrical film since Margin Call in 2011, although she's been keeping busy on smaller projects. The raunchy story centers on five friends who rent a beach house in Miami for a wild bachelorette weekend, only to have things go completely off the rails. There may also be the hiding a dead body involved, if we're to believe the previous title of Move that Body. Broad City's Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello wrote co-wrote the Black List approved screenplay for Aniello to direct. Filming has already begun in hopes of having it ready for a June 23rd 2017 release. [Deadline]
