Variety is reporting Elizabeth Banks is in negotiations to direct a reboot for Sony’s “Charlie’s Angels” franchise.
Banks will also produce via her Universal-based Brownstone production company with her husband and producing partner Max Handelman.
“Charlie’s Angels” launched in 1976 on ABC and lasted five seasons with Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith portraying private detectives working for a benefactor named Charlie. Cheryl Ladd replaced Fawcett, with Shelley Hack and Tanya Roberts joining in later years.
