Adam Shankman To Helm ‘What Men Want’

Paramount Players has hired Adam Shankman to direct their upcoming comedy ‘What Men Want’. Apart from directing, Adam will also serve as the executive producer. The film is inspired by the 2000 rom-com, ‘What Women Want’, which was directed by Nancy Meyers.

 The movie will feature Taraji P. Henson. Will Packer and James Lopez will produce the flick. The original movie featured Mel Gibson who played the role of a marketing executive who suddenly gains the power to hear what women are thinking after a freak accident. In the remake, the role is vice versa.

 Taraji P. Henson will essay the role of a sports agent who is always blocked by her male colleague. Later, she gains the ability to hear men’s thoughts and shifts the paradigm to her advantage as she races to sign the NBA’s next superstar. The film is set to release on January 11, 2019. Shankman recently directed and executive produced the YouTube Red pilot ‘Step Up: High Water’.
