I can never get too many of those body switching comedies. Ever since Freaky Friday, when Barbara Harris and Jody Foster changed places and there was water skiing involved, that whole genre as been comedy gold. Jay Chandrasekhar agrees with me, I think. He’s going to be directing a body switching movie called Opposites Attract. It’s not clear how it will incorporate water skiing.
Chandrasekhar is a member of the Broken Lizard comedy group and also their usual director when they make a film like Super Troopers or Beerfest. He has branched out with the non-Lizard pseudo-comedy Dukes of Hazzard and has also done quite a bit of television work, including Arrested Development.
According to HR, Opposites Attract is about a young couple that gets to experience life as the other in order to help their relationship. It will be R-rated and focus on differences between the sexes. Since most of these body switching movies involve adults and kids, it might be interesting to see it done with grown-ups of different sexes. Actually, it probably won’t be that interesting.
