Emmy-winner Tiffany Haddish (SNL, The Kitchen) is set to star in and a produce a feature adaptation of Dark Horse comic series Mystery Girl for Netflix, with McG (Terminator: Salvation, The Babysitter) on board to direct.

Created by Paul Tobin and Alberto Alburquerque, the story follows Trine, who "living off the grid in Los Angeles as a street psychic, has no memory of who she is or where she came from but is guided by an omniscient VOICE in her head that knows everyone’s business and everyone’s darkest secrets.

When a down on his luck LAPD officer, Cooper, seeks out Trine in hopes that she’ll help him crack a case, the two are framed for murder and must work together to clear their names and solve the ultimate mystery: the one behind Mystery Girl herself."

Haddish will produce via her She Ready Productions label along with McG, Mike Richardson and Keith Goldberg for Dark Horse Entertainment.

Haddish recently wrapped on Apple TV’s The Afterparty, and will next be seen in Netflix’s Bad Trip. She's also set to star in The Card Counter with Oscar Issac and Willem Dafoe, and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent with Nicholas Cage.

I’m not familiar with the comic but it seems like something different to what Tiffany has been doing. It sounds somewhat interesting
