Kim Kardashian to Star In and Produce New 'Female-Driven Comedy' “The 5th Wheel”: Report
Kim Kardashian most recently appeared in an onscreen acting role in the new season of 'American Horror Story'
Kim Kardashian is reportedly prepping for a major new movie role!
On Sunday, Deadline reported that Kardashian, 43, is attached to star in and produce an upcoming film titled The 5th Wheel, which she is currently pitching to a number of major studios.
The movie will be written by longtime Saturday Night Live writer Paula Pell, whom Deadline reported Kardashian will coproduce the film with, as well as screenwriter Janine Brito (One Day at a Time). The outlet described the movie as a "female-driven comedy."
A representative for Kardashian did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment Monday.
Kardashian's move into feature film acting and producing comes after she starred in the most recent season of FX's American Horror Story, in which she played a publicist named Siobhan who works for Emma Roberts's actress character Anna Victoria Alcott. In addition to an appearance as herself in 2018's Ocean's Eight, Kardashian also lent her voice to the character Delores in the two recent animated PAW Patrol movies.
"It's really fun to step outside of your comfort zone and try something new and grow," Kardashian told Variety of stepping into the American Horror Story role at the 2023 Met Gala back in May. "I'm so excited for the experience."
