Here’s how it works. (Image credit: Netflix) Jenna Ortega and Taylor Russell are in talks to lead an upcoming reboot of iconic 1992 erotic thriller Single White Female, according to a report published by The Insneider on March 14. The Hollywood Reporter later confirmed the news, though the publication stated that Sony, the studio thought to be working on the project with Elizabeth Gabler’s 3000 Pictures, offered no official comment. Starring Jennifer Jason Leigh and Bridget Fonda, the original found inspiration from John Lutz's 1990 novel SWF Seeks Same and was directed by Barbet Schroeder. It centers on Allie (Fonda), a 20-something software engineer who gets more than she bargained for when she moves Hedra (Leigh) into her Upper West Side apartment. It grossed $84.1 million at the global box-office, having cost $16 million to make, and spawned a direct-to-DVD sequel – subtitled The Psycho – in 2005.

Unfortunately for them, the horned creature had a family and well, unicorns are surprisingly vicious when it comes to cold-blooded revenge. After that, she'll be seen reprising her role as the po-faced Addams Family character in the second season of hit Netflix series Wednesday. As for Russell, whose previous credits include Bones and All and both Escape Room movies, she's got The Wailing director Na Hong-jin's new sci-fi thriller Hope lined up with Hwang Jung-min, Zo In-sung, Alicia Vikander, and Michael Fassbender.
