"Troop Beverly Hills" Sequel in Works with Cameron Diaz Attached

Cameron Diaz is developing a sequel to the ’80s cult comedy “Troop Beverly Hills," directed by Clea DuVall.

The new movie is in development at TriStar Pictures, with DuVall set to direct from her own script and Diaz eyeing a starring role.

Laurence Mark (“The Greatest Showman,” “Dreamgirls”) will produce alongside Diaz and her business partner, Katherine Power. (The pair co-founded the popular organic wine brand Avaline.)

While plot details are under wraps, "Troop Beverly Hills" — released in 1989 — starred Shelley Long as Phyllis Nefler, a pampered but soon-to-be-divorced Beverly Hills housewife who aims to prove to her daughter that she can rough it as a Wilderness Girls leader.

Along the way, Phyllis discovers that it’s not a bad thing for shopping to be her greatest skill. In fact, her mastery of the luxury lifestyle — everything from jewelry appraisal and grooming to international relations and yes, dancing the Freddy — could be just as beneficial to her troop as learning to build a fire or pitch a tent.

The original film was based on events in the life of producer Ava Fries.

Jeff Kanew directed the movie, based on a story by Fries and a screenplay by Pamela Norris and Margaret Oberman, produced by Weintraub Entertainment and released through Sony Pictures.

The ensemble cast also featured Craig T. Nelson, Betty Thomas, Mary Gross, a young Jenny Lewis, Kellie Martin, Carla Gugino and Tori Spelling, as well as Tasha Scott, Emily Schulman, Ami Foster, and Heather Hopper.

The new “Troop Beverly Hills” project reunites Diaz with Sony Pictures after starring in the “Charlie’s Angels” reboot, “The Holiday” and “Bad Teacher,” all of which grossed more than $200 million worldwide.

Last year, Diaz returned to acting after more than a decade-long hiatus, starring opposite Jamie Foxx in Netflix’s “Back in Action.”

She’ll next be seen starring opposite Keanu Reeves and Matt Bomer in Jonah Hill’s dark comedy “Outcome,” hitting Apple TV on April 10.

Diaz will also reprise her role as Princess Fiona in “Shrek 5,” and star in the Netflix action-comedy “Bad Day.”

DuVall also reunites with TriStar Pictures following 2020’s “Happiest Season.”

She directed and co-wrote the critically acclaimed rom-com, starring Kristen Stewart.

“Happiest Season” was licensed by Hulu in the U.S. and became the most-watched original film on the streamer on its opening weekend.
