What’s the only thing better than a buddy comedy? Rivals forced to work together for the greater good. 

And when those frenemies happen to be played by Salma Hayek and Anne Hathaway? Well, no need to dream because, to quote the latter, “It came true.” Hayek and Hathaway will produce and star in a comedy thriller adaptation of Kotaro Isaka’s book Seesaw Monster, with a script by Olivia Milch.

    Two people standing together indoors, one with an arm around the other. The environment has decorative bubble shapes hanging from the ceiling and soft lighting, creating a whimsical and cozy atmosphere.

This project marks a reunion for Hathaway and Milch, who previously wrote the script for Ocean’s 8, as well as the 2018 Netflix stoner comedy Dude. After her spirited performance as psychic Giuseppina “Pina” Auriemma alongside Lady Gaga in House of Gucci, Hayek is set to star in Magic Mike’s Last Dance, Steven Soderbergh’s final installment of the Magic Mike trilogy. Meanwhile, good news, Hathafans, you can catch your girl opposite Jeremy Strong in James Gray’s coming-of-age film Armageddon Time.

Additional Seesaw Monster details are still under wraps, so be sure to check back for more updates. In the meantime, bask in the power of that Hathaway-Hayek alliance.
