Wolf pledges to direct Faris' sorority project

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - One-time "Saturday Night Live" writer Fred Wolf has signed on to direct the untitled Anna Faris project for Columbia Pictures and Happy Madison.

Faris, whose credits include "Lost in Translation" and the "Scary Movie" franchise, will portray a Playboy Bunny who gets kicked out of the Playboy Mansion and becomes house mother to the least popular sorority on campus.

Wolf will helm the comedy from a screenplay written by "Legally Blonde" scribes Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith.

Wolf, who wrote "Joe Dirt" and "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star" with David Spade, directed the upcoming comedy "Strange Wilderness" for Happy Madison and 20th Century Fox.
