Blake Lively Set to Star in Netflix's Adaptation of LADY KILLER with Diablo Cody Writing The Script
Netflix is developing a film adaptation of the Dark Horse Comic series Lady Killer, and Blake Lively (The Shallows) is set to star with Diablo Cody (Juno) set to write the script.
Lively will take on the role of Josie Schuller. “By all appearances, she is the perfect 1950’s housewife. But when she’s not catering to the needs of her family, she leads a secret life as a highly-trained killer for hire. She really likes the second job, and her husband has no idea.”
The story is said to combine the wholesome imagery of 1950s domestic bliss with “a tightening web of murder, paranoia, and cold-blooded survival.”
This is a great project for Lively to take on, and she’s a perfect fit for this character! She’s proven that she’s got the badass action movie skills, but she’s also a talented actress that will be great at bringing this character to life.
The Lady Killer comic book series was written by Joëlle Jones and Jamie S. Rich, illustrated by Joëlle Jones, and colored by Laura Allred.
