Movie Chick Fight Malin Ackerman Paul Leyden about 5 years agoby Jessica Fisher

Malin Ackerman (Watchmen, Billions) has jumped on the project Chick Fight as the producer and star. The action comedy is being directed by Paul Leyden, who worked with Ackerman on the short 2009 thriller Bye Bye Sally. Deadline has shared the following synopsis for the original story:

Chick Fight “centers on Anna (Akerman), who still hasn’t reconciled with the recent death of her adored mother. She’s also just discovered her loving and supportive father is gay (which she totally supports, but the deception cuts deep). And she accidentally burns down her uninsured coffee shop. Knowing Anna needs to be abruptly shaken and stirred from her deep funk, her best friend Charleen takes Anna to an all-women underground fight club, where Anna slowly rediscovers herself, her inner strength and true purpose.”

This sounds like a fun movie, and a refreshing premise for a female-driven story. Does this sound like a movie you might enjoy?
