A Single White Female remake is moving at Sony and 3000 Pictures with Wednesday star Jenna Ortega and Taylor Russell (Bones and All) in talks to star.
There's no word on who might direct the remake, which was first reported on in The Insneider. We understand the film is in the very early stages of development. Russell and Ortega will also produce the film.
The original Single White Female was directed by Barbet Schroeder and starred Jennifer Jason Leigh and Bridget Fonda. In the film, Fonda starred as Allison "Allie" Jones, a software designer living in New York City, who advertises for a roommate after she discovers her live-in fiance has been cheating on her. She soon finds something very strange is going on with the tenant (Leigh) who decides to move in. Sony's Columbia Pictures distributed the original, which grossed $48 million domestically.
There's been a few attempts at reviving the picture since then. In 2005, a direct-to-video sequel titled Single White Female 2: The Psycho was released. That film starred Kristen Miller and Allison Lange. In 2016, NBC announced plans to produce and broadcast an hour-long drama based on the original film. That never saw the light of day.
Ortega is best known for her portrayal of Wednesday Addams in Tim Burton's modern-day take on The Addams Family for Netflix. She also starred in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the follow-up to the original 1988 film starring Michael Keaton, Catherine O'Hara, and Winona Ryder.
Russell was the lead opposite Timothée Chalamet in Luca Guadagnino's Bones and All. She has also starred in Waves, Escape Room, Na Hong-jin's forthcoming Hope, and will lead a Thomas Crown Affair reboot directed by Michael B. Jordan.
