Jennifer Garner and Anna Faris will star in The Bachlorette Party- basically The Hangover with women. This is the short synopsis: A high-school teacher recently left at the altar must now send off her uptight cousin with a huge bachelorette bash. The cousin is marrying the teacher’s best male friend. During a drunken bachelorette party, the uptight cousin betrays her fiancée with a drunken indiscretion, leaving the teacher to decide where her loyalties lie. Hmmm. Bush description but the title is pretty self-explanatory.

This one does have the potential to be one of the better female-led comedies. The film was written by Karen McCullah Lutz, one of the most successful woman screenwriters in Hollywood. She wrote 10 Things I Hate About You, Legally Blonde, Ella Enchanted, She's the Man, The House Bunny, and The Ugly Truth. I loved 10 Things I Hate About You, Legally Blonde, and enjoyed She's the Man. Ella Enchanted was good for what it was. The rest... not so much. However, she has a pretty good track record and is able to draw in young women. I love both Garner and Farris so I'm looking forward to hearing more casting news. Oh, and if you haven't seen Just Friends yet, rent it for Anna's performance.
