Naomi Scott joins ‘Charlie’s Angels’ reboot

Actress Naomi Scott has been roped in to star as one of the leading ladies in the reboot of ‘Charlie’s Angels’.

A well-established entertainment network is rebooting the famous franchise with actor-director Elizabeth Banks on board to direct the new version. According to a report, Scott, 25, has been confirmed to star in one of the trio’s roles.

Kristen Stewart is also confirmed and Lupita Nyong’o is in negotiations to star in the project. Banks will also star in the movie as the gender-flipped Bosley.

The previous film was produced, starring Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu as angels. The movie became a huge hit and went on to earn USD 264 million worldwide.

It was followed by a bloated and not well-received sequel, 2003’s ‘Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle’.
