Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Remake with Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson to Be Helmed by Veep Director Chris Addison

The remake of comedy classic Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is going forward with Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson taking on the roles that Steve Martin and Michael Caine once played and, just announced, Chris Addison, a director on HBO’s Veep, as the director.

Also, he script is written by Jac Schaeffer who wrote and directed the intriguing TiMER.

It’s an interesting mix and, altogether, we hope that there isn’t the nonsense that happened with the Ghostbusters reboot.

While that seems like two films pulled out of a hat to mash-up, Nacho Vigalondo is one of only a few directors that could make this project seem like it was meant to be.

Frequently one for the fantastical and darker sides of humor (check out this short from a couple of years ago), Spanish filmmaker Nacho Vigalondo has taken on quite the film in Colossal, which has been cited as somewhere between Adaptation, Transformers, Godzilla, and Being John Malkovich.

Anne Hathaway plays a seemingly normal woman who befalls misfortune then finds out that her life is connected to the destruction of a giant lizard thousands and thousands of miles away.

While this is sure to cross plenty of genres, we’re confident that this will be worth checking out as soon as it’s on a screen near you.
