Variety reports that Kate McKinnon (Saturday Night Live) is in talks to join the cast of director Danny Boyle (127 Hours, Slumdog Millionaire) and writer Richard Curtis’ (Love Actually) untitled comedy for Universal and Working Title.
The actress recently shot the comedy The Spy Who Dumped Me opposite Mila Kunis last summer.
Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce for Working Title along with Matt Wilkinson and Bernie Bellew.
If negotiations end with a deal, McKinnon would join the recently announced Lily James (Darkest Hour, Baby Driver) and Himesh Patel (Damned), who are set to star in the film.
