• The project was first announced in 2009, but since then the idea has undergone many changes and at one time or another was owned by three studios. Initially, it was a Universal Pictures project, in 2014 it was acquired by Sony Pictures. Jenny Bicks was hired as the screenwriter, but a year later she was replaced by Diablo Cody as the author of the script. In December 2016, negotiations for the lead role began with Amy Schumer, who was also offered to rewrite the script with Kim Caramele. Schumer left the project in 2017 when it was announced that Aleta Jones would be the director, Olivia Milch would be the screenwriter, and Anne Hathaway would star in the lead role. In 2018, the project moved to Warner Bros.
