Universal's 'Murder, She Wrote' movie is eyeing Jamie Lee Curtis for its lead role, sources tell Deadline, as development heats up.

Script is by Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo, the duo behind the Craig Gillespie-directed drama Dumb Money, about the GameStop short squeeze of 2021. Whodunits are hot, from the Knives Out trilogy with Daniel Craig’s Benoit Blanc, to the Hercule Poirot mysteries with Kenneth Branagh that began with Murder On The Orient Express. Curtis, who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Everything, Everywhere, All At Once, currently stars alongside Pamela Anderson in the Gia Coppola-directed Vegas drama The Last Showgirl.
