The Wild Eric Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) http://deadline.com/2017/11/what-women-want-taraji-p-henson-mel-gibson-paramount-players-what-men-want-1202208131/ Quote Paramount Players has signed Empire‘s Taraji P. Henson to star in What Men Want, a comedy inspired by the 2000 Nancy Meyers hit romantic comedy What Women Want. The studio is fast tracking the film, and has set it for release January 11, 2019. The original starred Mel Gibson as a confident chauvinistic male who suddenly acquires the ability to hear what the women around him are really thinking. The new version follows a female sports agent (Henson) who has been constantly boxed out by her male colleagues. When she gains the power to hear men’s thoughts, she is able to shift the paradigm to her advantage as she races to sign the NBA’s next superstar. Paging @CJohn @filmlover and @WrathOfHan (you're a Taraji stan, right?) Edited August 20, 2018 by CoolEric258 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it being dumped? Because it is a remake of What Women Want about a woman who needs to be more understanding of her male compatriots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was not bad in Twister. People crap on that film but its way better than current disaster movies really.
