Sacha Baron Cohen and Rosamund Pike are set to inhabit an alternate society in the Netflix romantic-comedy feature Ladies First.
Filmmaker Thea Sharrock (The Beautiful Game) is helming the project that adapts director Eleonore Pourriat’s French-language movie Je Ne Suis Pas Un Homme Facile. Katie Silberman (Booksmart), Natalie Krinsky (The Broken Hearts Gallery) and Cinco Paul (Despicable Me) penned the script for the new film.
Ladies First follows a womanizer who gets a shock when he is suddenly living in a world dominated by women, with an opinionated female counterpart adding to the complications.
A release date has not yet been announced.
Producers include Liza Chasin for 3dot Productions, along with Eleonore Dailly, Edouard de Lachomette and Four By Two Films.
Sharrock’s previous features as director include Me Before You, The One and Only Ivan, Wicked Little Letters and The Beautiful Game.
Deadline first reported about Ladies First.
More to come.
