remakin’ laverne & shirley

who knew? apparently jennifer garner & jessica biel are a couple of bff’s! enough to dive into a movie project together: the movie remake of 70′s classic tv show laverne & shirley.

romantic comedy guru director garry marshall is the brains behind the operation, with a fairly unlikely screenwritin’ partner – jamie foxx! marshall tells tv guide mag:

“jamie and i are trying to do it. he’s writing it. it’s a whole different modern 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.”

wait, what? i can totally picture a cute best friend-ish movie with these two lovely ladies, but what’s all this about growin’ up in the streets, mr. director? i’m quite curious to see how this pans out!
