The Hustle | May 10 2019 | Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Remake | Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson | MGM | Will be PG-13

EXCLUSIVE: MGM is in talks with Anne Hathaway to team with Rebel Wilson in Nasty Women, the title of the Jac Schaeffer-scripted remake of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. The comedy gender-reverses the 1988 Frank Oz-directed film that starred Steve Martin and Michael Caine as con men who try to swindle an heiress. The title is clever, given the awareness it received when Donald Trump gave Hillary Clinton that moniker during the presidential debates. Hathaway and Wilson play the scam artists — one low rent and the other high class — who compete to swindle a naïve tech prodigy out of his fortune. Pin High Productions’ Roger Birnbaum and Wilson’s Camp Sugar Productions are producing, with Birnbaum coming off The Magnificent Seven.

Now waiting for the Spanish remake called "Bad Hombres"

I think Anne would fit great in this. I assume she would take the Michael Caine role. Rebel Wilson in the Steve Martin role? I'm not so sure.

 

Kate McKinnon though...

Rebel Wilson wearing an eye patch and sitting in a chair peeing herself would be pretty funny.

The title is such a bait and switch.

So a remake of a remake - the first film being Bedtime Story with Marlon Brando & David Niven in the 1960s.

Does this movie have anything to do with Trump?

Seems likely, but they pushed it up from August last month, lol. Why move it up to only push it back again?
