Pitch Perfect actress Rebel Wilson is on board to star in the high school comedy Senior Year for Paramount Players, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
Alex Hardcastle will direct the film about a cheerleader who wakes from a 20-year coma and returns to high school to earn the prom queen crown that she missed the first time around. Brandon Scott Jones penned the Senior Year script.
Wilson will share producer credits with Todd Garner and Chris Bender. The executive producer credits on Senior Year are shared by Jeremy Stein, Jake Wagner and Jake Weiner.
