According to The Hollywood Reporter, Regina Hall will join Issa Rae and BLACK-ISH star Marsai Martin in the Universal comedy Little.
Hall was previously attached as an executive producer, but now will also star in the movie that centers on a woman who gets the chance to relive the carefree life of her younger self (Martin), when the pressures of adulthood become too much.
Drumline scripter Tina Gordon is attached to direct. Tracy Oliver penned the first draft of the screenplay, based on Martin's idea, with Camilla Blackett (Fresh Off the Boat, New Girl) working on a rewrite of the latest draft from Gordon.
Will Packer and James Lopez, who worked with Hall on the box-office hit Girls Trip, are set to produce via the Universal-based Will Packer Productions, alongside BLACK-ISH creator Kenya Barris. Martin will executive produce, with Hall and Josh Martin.
Hall is best known for her lead role as Brenda Meeks in the Scary Movie film series (2000-2006). She has appeared on numerous television series, most prominently in a recurring role on the comedy series Ally McBeal (2001-2002). Her other significant films include The Best Man (1999) and its sequel The Best Man Holiday (2013), Love & Basketball (2000), Malibu's Most Wanted (2003), Think Like a Man (2012) and its sequel Think Like a Man Too (2014), About Last Night (2014), Vacation (2015) and Girls Trip (2017).
