It's happening; check out these new picture exclusives of Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively filming Paul Feig's upcoming feature 'A Simple Favor' (scheduled for a September 2018 release) ...
"After many years working within the realm of comedy, it seems that Paul Feig is ready to tackle something a little different. Per The Tracking Board, the GHOSTBUSTERS director has signed on to direct A SIMPLE FAVOR in which Blake Lively (THE SHALLOWS) and Anna Kendrick (PITCH PERFECT) are reportedly in talks to star.
Based upon the novel of the same name by Darcey Bell, the thriller centers on a single mother whose life is turned upside down when her best friend vanishes. A SIMPLE FAVOR is said to be in the same vein as GONE GIRL and THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN. Jessica Sharzer (American Horror Story) will be penning the script, and, should Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively sign on, production is slated to get underway in August. However, this may present a conflict with LATE NIGHT, a Mindy Kaling comedy which Paul Feig was expected to direct, but Jeff Sneider added that The Mindy Project's Nisha Gantara may be the front-runner to replace Feig on LATE NIGHT."
