With her Godzilla inspired comedy Colossal presumably being halted by Toho due to copyright issues, it’s refreshing to know that Anne Hathaway isn’t about to give up on our genre just yet.
The Hollywood Reporter tells us that she’ll star in The Shower, about a meteor shower that turns men into bloodthirsty monsters, so naturally, it’s up to the women to save the day.
Hathaway will produce alongside her husband Adam Shulman, Andrew Lauren, D.J. Gugenheim and the writer, Jac Schaeffer. A director has not yet been announced.
Hathaway had the following to say about The Shower:
“Jac has written an awesome sci-fi comedy centered around funny, fully dimensional female characters, I feel so lucky to be a part of the team that will bring her enormously talented and fresh voice to the big screen.”
With the alien invasion sub-genre becoming tired as of late, so this interesting play of the sexes will certainly help to make it fresh again.
