For what it’s worth, Rothman is attached to the writing of that script as well.
The report by Deadline is a bit surprising since the last thing we heard about the female 21 Jump Street was that sibling writers Lizzie and Wendy Molyneux had been hired to pen the script.
That was over a year ago when this project was first getting started, so it isn’t too surprising that things changed, though the reason for the swap is unknown.
Since it’s been so long since news on the project came out, we’d honestly thought this idea had been put on the shelf, with the 21Jump Street/Men in Black crossover apparently having more steam as far as the franchise is concerned.
