Bad Teacher

We have news of a new workplace comedy titled Bad Teacher to share with you today thanks to our friends over at movieweb:

Columbia Pictures has purchased the spec script Bad Teacher, by The Office co-exec producers Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky.

According to Variety, the story follows a foul-mouthed, gold-digging seventh-grade teacher who’s dumped by her sugar-daddy boyfriend and turns her attention toward a colleague. That pits her against a rival who happens to be the school’s model teacher.

I do not like the title of this one. Bad Santa already exists, so this film automatically sounds like a porn rip off.

The premise itself sounds promising. Good girl vs bad girl for the heart of a co-worker sounds quite promising. The Office is a program that takes the piss out of everyday work life and makes fun of daily absurdities. If the producers make make good in similar fashion here; we will all benefit from the hilarity.

I would like to see Geena Gershon vs Amy Adams or something to that effect. As for the dude, you would have to have someone that you could see going either way…actually Toby Mcguire might be good. If Gina Gershon licked his face in an uncomfortable setting (like the copy room) it would be pretty funny.

We will be sure to keep you posted on the updates, and will fill you in on the details as they are made available to us.
