Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer are working together on a screenplay for a comedy.
Jennifer Lawrence revealed that she and her new friend Amy Schumer are writing a script together.
“We play sisters,” Lawrence told The New York Times about the film’s storyline. “We’re almost done writing. It just flowed out of us. We’ve got about 100 pages right now.”
Jennifer Lawrence broke the news on Wednesday while promoting “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2.”
“Amy and I were creatively made for each other,” she told NYT. “We have different flavors. It’s been the most fun experience of my life. We start the day off on the phone, laughing. And then we send each other pages. And we crack up. I’m flying out tomorrow to see her in Chicago. We’ll write a little bit with her sister, Kim, who worked with Amy when she was writing ‘Trainwreck.’”
Jennifer Lawrence then picked up the phone to text her new friend Amy Schumer, who she met a few months ago, that she spilled the beans about their joint production.
“Let me just text Amy and tell her that I told you,” she said in the middle of the interview. “I wrote, ‘I just spilled the beans to The New York Times. Is that OK?’” she said. “And Amy wrote back, ‘That you’re gay? Totally! It’s exciting!’”
