Kristen Wiig: Although she has denied any interest in making a sequel to the smash hit Bridesmaids, Kristen Wiig is ready to reunite with Annie Mumolo, her writing partner on the film. Wiig and Mumolo (see photo above) will write, produce and star in an untitled comedy described as the story of "best friends who find themselves in over their heads and out of their depths, which were, perhaps, not too deep to begin with.” Wiig also plans to make her directing debut on the project.
