Director of new Maverick film project

Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham) will direct Sassy Girl for DreamWorks and Guy Oseary and Madonna’s Maverick Films, says The Hollywood Reporter. The project is a remake of I.M. Pictures’ Korean romantic comedy.

“Sassy Girl” is based on a real-life anonymous diary that follows the lives of two college students brought together by fate. A naive boy becomes involved with a beautiful, sassy girl who manages to wrap him around her finger as he helps her through hard times.

Chadha is also attached to direct the romantic comedy Nine Wives for New Line Cinema and I Dream of Jeannie for Columbia Pictures.
