Feig Grants Witherspoon's "Wish"

Paul Feig ("Bridesmaids") is in talks to direct the comedy fantasy "Wish List" according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The story centers on a career-oriented woman (Reese Witherspoon) whose perfectly tailored life is thrown for a loop when all the wishes she made as a child are suddenly granted.

Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger ("Kung Fu Panda 2") wrote the script.

Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray are producing the film.

The project was originally set up over a decade ago with a male star in mind.
