\"Scarlett<\/a><\/p>\n

Scarlett Johansson is in talks to star in the comedy Move That Body<\/strong> for Sony Pictures.<\/p>\n

The script, by Broad City<\/em> stars Lucia Aniello and Paul W Downs hit this year’s Black List of best currently unproduced screenplays after it launched a bidding war in June when it was first shopped around to the studios.<\/p>\n

If she signs, Johansson will star as one of five friends who rent a Miami beach house for a bachelorette weekend and wind up accidentally killing a male stripper. Deadline<\/a> is reporting that the project is shooting for an R rating.<\/p>\n

At first blush, the logline for the film does suggest some strong similarities to other comedies such as Very Bad Things<\/strong> or a cross between The Hangover<\/strong> and Weekend At Bernie’s<\/strong>. But while she has starred in some dark comedies like Ghost World<\/strong> or Lost In Translation<\/strong>. Johansson has yet to headline a film that was more raucous and in the vein of the films that Move That Body<\/strong> seem to be drawing inspiration from. It should be interesting to see how she acquits herself in this new territory.<\/p>\n

Aniello and Downs are also working on a 21 Jump Street<\/strong> spinoff film for Sony.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
