American Idol judge Nicki Minaj is taking a leap from the small screen to the big screen in a new revenge comedy titled, The Other Woman.
According to Indie Wire, Minaj is reportedly in final talks to join Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Kate Upton. The story follows a woman (Diaz) who finds out that she is “the other woman” in an affair and teams up with the wife (Mann) to get revenge on the cheating husband (Nikolaj).
Minaj will play Diaz’s law firm assistant, who’s also on her third marriage and gives unconventional advice. Although this is Minaj’s first live action film, she has lent her voice to the animated film, Ice Age 4: Continental Drift as Steffie the Mammoth. She is also rumored to star in a thriller titled The Counselor.
Variety says The Other Woman is like “The First Wives Club” but with a younger cast. Principal photography for the film is set to begin this spring in New York.
RC will keep you posted on both projects.
