New Remake Of 1980 Classic Comedy Gets Story Update That Teases "Cultural Clash" For New Generation

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي]

Writer Diablo Cody explains how her remake of Dolly Parton's 1980 comedy 9 to 5 will shift its focus and update its central struggle to capture a more contemporary workplace culture clash. Colin Higgin's comedy starred Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin as a trio of women working under a ruthless, cruel, and bigoted vice president who come together to end his reign of terror. While no sequel ever came to pass after 39 years of false starts and speculation, Jennifer Anniston is set to produce a remake, with Cody set to write following 2024's horror comedy Lisa Frankenstein.
