Paramount has picked up an untitled pitch about two estranged sisters who team up to land a husband. Faris would both star and serve as an executive producer.

Additionally, Columbia has acquired "20 Times a Lady" as a starring vehicle for Faris. The project, based on a book by Karyn Bosnak, centers on a woman who goes on a trek through her sexual past in an effort to find Mr. Right, exploring the idea of a person's sexual quota and whether those numbers matter.

Faris starred in the popular "Scary Movie" series and stole scenes in films ranging from "Lost in Translation" to "Just Friends." But it was with "Bunny," which grossed almost $50 million domestically this fall, that she established herself as a viable comedy topliner, a field that is almost exclusively the domain of men.
