"Bridesmaids" director Paul Feig has signed on to direct "Wish List," in which Reese Witherspoon may play a career-oriented woman whose life gets turned upside down. Witherspoon is already reportedly in talks to appear in Disney's new film "Wish List."
The script was penned by a writing team with credits including "Kung Fu Panda," "Tooth Fairy," and "Alvin And The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked." The producers sum up the film saying:
"[An] overly imaginative little girl makes ten wishes at a wishing well. They don't come true because her coin never reached the bottom and eventually she loses her inner child and becomes a full grown and ambitious career woman. Some 25 years later, the coin is dislodged, falls to the bottom and she has to deal with the ramifications of 10 kid wishes coming true all at once."
According to movies.ie, the script has been in circulation since 2001 and was originally developed for a male lead.
