All-Female 21 Jump Street Is Coming from the Writers of Broad City

published 30 April 2015

This seems like the perfect fit. After announcing the all-female reboot of Ghostbusters (opens in new tab), the Sony team has put another all-female movie remake in motion: 21 Jump Street. And the best part? Two Broad City (opens in new tab) writers are penning the film.

According to The Hollywood Reporter (opens in new tab), Lucia Aniello and Paul W. Downs have signed on and are already in the midst of working on the movie. No cast members have been named yet and no release date, either. But um, we have a few suggestions. Sony, are you listening?

1. Cameos by both Abbi and Ilana and Channing and Jonah would be much appreciated.

2. 21 Jump Street is hilarious, so this one better be, too. We're rooting for you.

3. Any of these actresses would make for a fine film: Anna Kendrick, Alison Brie (who's dating Dave Franco, who also stars in 21 Jump Street—cameo??), Amy Schumer, Emma Stone, Akilah Hughes... Actually, have you hired a casting director yet? 'Cause we're down.
