Lupita Nyong’o will star in Universal Pictures’ upcoming outer space comedy.
Deadline reports that the as-yet-untitled film is described as a cross between Miss Congeniality and Men in Black.
The film marks a reunion between Nyong’o and Australian writer/director Abe Forsythe, who helmed the zombie comedy Little Monsters, which had its world premiere at Sundance back in January.
Last year, she co-starred in Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, and will be reprising her role as Maz Kanata in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker this December.
