Jamie Foxx Writing Laverne And Shirley Movie?








Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Ray Charles?

Remember all the hoopla about the recent 'Valentine's Day' movie directed by Garry Marshall? You remember.... The movie starring almost every actor and actress in Hollywood?

During the press tour for the 'Valentine's Day' movie, new BFF's Jennifer Garner and Jessica Biel mentioned that they would love to do a remake of the popular television show (also directed by Garry Marshall) 'Laverne and Shirley'....

Well, it may be happening!!!! And it's going to be written by their 'Valentine's Day' co-star Jamie Foxx!?!?!?! Yes..... Jamie Foxx. I am both intrigued and frightened.... I really hope Garry Marshall's not just pulling our leg....

Garry Marshall told TV Guide:
“Jamie and I are trying to do it. He’s writing it. It’s a whole different modern day take on how they came up on the streets during difficult times. Laverne would be this very tough girl with a big ‘L’ tattooed on her arm. Jennifer Garner would play Laverne and Jessica Biel would play Shirley.”
