The film is being developed (and directed) by Elizabeth Banks, and will feature Stewart as Bosley, long-time associate at the Townsend Agency. Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinska will star as the Angels,
Originally, Banks was going to play Bosley, but apparently that's changed for an undisclosed reason, perhaps giving the filmmaker more focus on the direction?
Deadline goes on to remind us that Jay Basu and Banks have written the most recent script, based on earlier drafts by Craig Mazin and Semi Chellas.
Charlie's Angels currently has an expected release date of September 27th, 2019.
Bleeding Cool News Editor Mary Anne Butler (Mab, for short) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), and most recently Bleeding Cool.
Over the past 10 years, she’s built a presence at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always).
Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence.
Though she be but little, she is fierce. #MabTheProfessional
