Anna Farris To Star In Female Frat Comedy

anna_faris.jpgIn the name of the Tri-Lams, I bring you news of a new frat movie en route to a theater near you! We get the scoop about the currently untitled project thanks to the professionals at Variety:


Columbia Pictures and Happy Madison have set Anna Faris to star and Fred Wolf to direct an untitled college campus comedy that will begin production this summer.

Faris will play an ex-Playboy bunny who moves into the lamest sorority on campus to help make the girls more popular. “Legally Blonde” scribes Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith wrote the screenplay.

On paper a movie about an ex-Playmate joining a female fraternity to “whore the girls up” and make them cool sounds dynamite. I am hard pressed to think of a frat movie that has had a female as the lead, and has told the tale of frat life from a women’s perspective. I think this is a great step in exploring the majesty of the frat film genre.

I think the idea is solid, now I hope the film is good. Anna Farris has been in some stuff I like (Lost In Translation) and some stuff that I hate (Scary Movies) I would consider myself neutral on the news of her starring in this role. I think Jenny McCarthy or Carmen Electra may have been better suited for this role, but this is just me speculating. The script and team they have together could suit Farris perfectly. We will wait and see.

It is a shame the movie does not yet have a name. International Friends – what would you name this film.

My title would be The Girls Of Tau Nu Alpha

  1. Anna farris is one of the hottest actresses in Hollywood.
    can’t wait to see this flick.

    I do not like the Scary Movies, SAVE farris. I have them all and watch them while doing other things just so I can Glance over at her.

    people are to into “perfection” and cheesed up chicks. Anna is down to earth and for lack of a btter word a “normal” Woman. I absolutely love her.

  2. Anna Farris is cute and has a decent body I wouldn’t mind seeing naked, but Douggie, the movie isn’t a “FRAT” movie, it’s a “Sorority” pic and therefore is probably going to be “Legally Blonde on Campus” (therefore = SHYT). Don’t call it a frat movie cuz the “scribes” are going to make the guys in the movie as dumb as guys who make comedies and use women as filler.

    Hey, maybe those three idiots from Borat can get jobs in this flick???

  3. I really think Anna will do a great job she is a very funny actress that doesn’t get enough praise. I can’t wait to see this movie. It sounds hiliarious!

  5. Anna Farris is insanely hot though, I’m all for her in various slutty outfits. Put this along with the Lindsay Lohan stripper movie, and there’s your grindhouse experience!

  6. I cant stand Anna Farris, i thikn she is a horrilbe actress….She was okay in Waiting, but just horrible in the Scary Movie franchise….when she acts, i want to vomit………but you never know, she might actually do good in this movie…….

    @ Nord, Love the movie title LOL

  7. I think Anna Farris is one of the better female comedy leads, love’em or hate’em, she was good in the Scary movie franchise, I liked her in Waiting also.

    This could be the movie that finally lands her as a household name.

    My movie title:

    Anna Cum Laude

    How often can you use the word “cum” in a title without a XXX rating?
