'Wedding' Co-Star Turns 'Cookie Queen'
Fisher will delve into the dark world of the Girl Scouts
April 30, 2007



Isla FisherUniversal has snagged the high concept comedy "The Cookie Queen" as a starring vehicle for Isla Fisher.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the "Wedding Crashers" co-star would play Claire "Cookie" Taylor, a young woman whose entire reputation is built around having once set a Girl Scout cookie selling record. When she learns that her record is suddenly in jeopardy, Claire gets down-and-dirty to stop the record-threatening fifth grader.

In addition to starring in "The Cookie Queen," Fisher is expected to produce.

Jeremy Hast and Ed Gonzalez wrote the script. The writing team previously set up the comedy "Heckled" at New Line with Fisher's "Wedding Crasher" co-star Vince Vaughn attached.

Not enough people saw Fisher in her most recent role in the thriller "The Lookout." Fisher has also completed work on the upcoming comedies "Hot Rod" and "Definitely, Maybe."
