The 1988 original, directed by Mike Nichols, starred Melanie Griffith, Harrison Ford, Sigourney Weaver and Joan Cusack and follows an ambitious secretary (Griffith) who takes on her boss’ identity while the latter is laid up with a broken leg. It’s not as far along as ‘Road House’ (which has Doug Liman directing and a shoot scheduled to kick off this month), but it does have ‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend’ and ‘Diary Of a Future President’ TV veteran Ilana Peña writing the script. Selena Gomez, meanwhile, is attached to star in ‘Working Girl’, which is in development at 20th Century Studios. But two high profile projects are hitting the news wires today – with ‘ Working Girl’ following word that ‘ Road House’ is going the remake route with Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead.
