Emmy Award-winning The Handmaid's Tale star Elisabeth Moss has landed the third and final lead role in New Line’s big-screen take on DC's The Kitchen, alongside Melissa McCarthy (Ghostbusters) and Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip).
The project is an adaptation of a 2014 DC Vertigo comic book series from Ollie Masters and Ming Doyle, which tells the story of a group of Irish mob wives in Hell’s Kitchen in the 1970s who take over the business when their husbands are sent down by the FBI.
Though McCarthy and Haddish' involvement might suggest a comedic tone, this big-screen take is described as a "gritty drama."
The Kitchen will be written and helmed by Straight Outta Compton scribe Andrea Berloff, who is making her directorial debut.
