Jennifer Garner will star in a modern set retelling of English sleuth, Miss Marple. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Garner will also produce the film, which will be based on Agatha Christie’s series where a little old lady solved crimes in a small, pre-WW2 village in England. The new film adaptation will apparently feature Garner as a city girl solving crimes, and has pissed off purists no end. "SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE OLD" they probably screamed, and "SHE'S HOT THAT'S JUST NOT RIGHT." I've never seen the original series so frankly, I don’t care. It looks like Garner probably wanted to play a detective of some sort and this had some built in name recognition.
No word on a director as of yet, but the script is being written by Mark Frost, who co-created Twin Peaks and penned the Fantastic Four films. Random.
