Isla Fisher Gets Two New Rom-Coms

Isla Fisher, last seen wearing a ridiculous array of fabulous fashion in Confessions of a Shopaholic, is in line for two new films at Universal: Life Coach and Someday My Princes Will Come. And it sounds like both are right up her light-comedy alley.

Life Coach is a comedy that will see Fisher play a young woman who decides to consult a, well, life coach (for those of you who don't watch Oprah, this is a quasi-therapist who advises you on how to improve all spheres of your life that need work). The only problem is that this particular coach is even more messed up than she is. Hilarity, we're guessing, ensues. Former Saturday Night Live writer Liz Cackowski and Maggie Carey will write that one.

Someday My Princes Will Come is based on an as-yet unproduced French script called Un jour mes princes viendront. Yes, they're now remaking French movies that haven't technically been made. There's no word on the plot of this one yet, except that it's a rom-com, but we're going to wildly speculate, based on title and genre, that a girl waits ages for the perfect man and then two / three come along at once. Because men are basically like buses: large, red and a bit smelly.

Audrey Wells, who wrote and directed Under The Tuscan Sun, will be writing that one. In the meantime, Fisher fans can at least hear her dulcet tones in Gore Verbinski's upcoming Rango, the story of a household pet who goes on an adventure to find himself.
