Paramount Pictures has nabbed the US distribution rights to an untitled female comedy from directors Jon Lucas & Scott Moore starring Leslie Mann.
The studio has slated the film for release on April 15, 2016.
Production is set to kick off in New York this summer with Lucas and Moore directing from their own screenplay.
Producers are Block Entertainment’s Bill Block, Merced Media’s Raj Brinder Singh and Apatow Productions’ Judd Apatow and Josh Church. John Friedberg is exec producing.
“We are excited to be partnering with Judd, Bill and their teams for this great project,” said Marc Evans, President of Paramount Pictures’ Motion Picture Group. “Leslie, Jon and Scott are among the best comedic talents working today and their combined forces will no doubt make for an incredibly funny movie that the whole team here is excited to be a part of.”
