Joel Silver Developing Female-Led ‘Nice Guys’ Series Adaptation at Fox


Joel Silver is adapting his 2016 buddy cop comedy “The Nice Guys” into a female-led drama series at Fox, Variety has learned.

“The Nice Girls” is a described as a one-hour contemporary female take on Silver’s acclaimed feature film, which starred Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling and was co-written and directed by Silver’s frequent collaborator Shane Black. Fox has ordered a script for the project from Silver Pictures Television with a significant penalty attached.

Michael Diliberti will write and executive produce, with Silver and his president of television Rodney Ferrell also executive producing. Ken Kao will also executive produce. Diliberti wrote the comedy film “30 Minutes or Less” for Sony/Columbia which starred Jesse Eisenberg and Danny McBride and is next set to direct his script “Miami, PI” for RatPac and Pulse Films.

The project is a co-production between Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox Television, and Silver Pictures Television. It falls under Silver’s first-look deal at Lionsgate.

Eh... They should have done an adaptation of KISS, KISS, BANG, BANG years ago.
 
I've been cool with most of it, but the gender swap thing is starting to get a little iffy now.

I really enjoyed the Nice Guys film, but I couldn't agree with you more on the gender swapping topic. There's absolutely no need for it. Is Shane Black gonna be involved at all? I haven't read anything about it.
 
Guess we should all expect every single movie/tv show with male leads to get a "gender-swap" version for some reason now?
 
Can't wait for the gender-swap version of Apocalypse Now. :p
